Anything Goes, Indeed


The kerfuffle over the wretched David Ray Griffin book published by Westminster John Knox press continues with an article in today's Wall Street Journal titled Anything Goes. Presbyblogger Rev. Toby Brown (A Classical Presbyterian) is quoted in the piece. PCUSA Moderator Rev. Joan Gray is also quoted saying, "the idea that the United States government engineered the 9/11 attacks is too over the top to be taken seriously."

Toby noted in a comment to the previous post that maybe at last we have found an issue that unifies the whole church. Maybe we have, but will anything be done about it? Don't hold your breath.

Kerfuffle. A wonderful word. Thank you for using it. It is perfect.

Per Toby: "maybe at last we have found an issue that unifies the whole church"......even if this is true, who else besides us bloggers would know about it? Not holding my breath, blue is not my color.

Peace,

Strange stuff, this.

I like kerfuffle, too.

It doesn't accomplish anything in terms of holding WJK accountable . . . but I was very pleased that Rev. Gray made the comment she did. Its refreshing to see a moderator display good sense.

Presbyterian Gal - hello. That's the misleading thing about blogging. It gives us an impression that more people are aware of the situation than in reality are. Of course coverage by the WSJ will also have an impact.
