Like Craig said - when you accidentally eat rat poison, you better hope the words on the bottle mean something. I say instead - that what we have in America are many moderns who lack logic - not from stupidity as much as from laziness. So they easily believe illogical things (not that Tony Jones is such). Also, I'm not sure the Emergent church is really growing much - and I don't think it's reaching out much - or reaching across ethnic, social, or age boundaries. It wouldn't surprise me if it's pretty much dead in 20 years - or highly changed. I think Matt P said something to the affect that these guys were burned by evangelical Christianity and have thrown the baby out with the bathwater. At times I feel burned and want to join them - not really, but at least I feel burned and frustrated.Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07249766968557076715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-659425844261987641.post-24894236957669188562008-03-29T17:03:00.000-05:002008-03-29T17:03:00.000-05:00I think you are right.I think you are right.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
