Interesting Out of Ur Article
I like Peter Berger idea it reminds me of a teaching in Matthew 7:13 & 14 13 "Enter through the narrow gate. The gate is wide and the road is wide that leads to hell, and many people enter through that gate. 14 But the gate is small and the road is narrow that leads to true life. Only a few people find that road.
I wonder if practice what you preach is not the mantra of the younger set? I see the Body of Christ at times being right in their thoughts but wrong in their actions. Homosexuality and Abortion being the two that come to mind. We have handled both as if they are Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit; unforgivable. It is the one place we as the Body of Christ will allow hate speech; both from the pulpit and from the pew. This cause the young folks to call Bull Manure alert and Rightfully so. We need to look at Berger's, as well as Campbell and Putnam's, thinking and deal with the whys and hows of the matter.
Here is Berger's full response
