I've read little bits and pieces of his work...I've also read that he continues to use some of your church documents as authorative which were proven years ago to be some of the documented forgeries of your church history...
As I see it, many, if not most of the Reformed churches are 'throwbacks' of the Catholic church...They don't like everything you guys teach but they never really cut the umbilical cord connected to your church...
I believe that's where Scott Hahn came from...He always was a Catholic...I'm not from that bunch...
WOW. I know you didn’t have a positive view of Catholicism, but I didn’t realize you didn’t view even many of the Reformed Churches favorably either.
What documents which were forgeries does he use? I’ll admit I don’t recall too many Church documents from his books, but I’ll readily admit I haven’t read all of them. I like Scott Hahn, but I have some criticisms.
Which Reformed Churches aren’t throwbacks? Or is it not really a cut and dry course iyho.
-The theology classes that Chris would have taken as a college freshman were quite Scriptural (and also quite Calvinist). I suspect the philosophy classes were as well. I know this because I took several of them (the ones that made up the required humanities core).
-Having met and spoken to both Chris and Dr. Hahn personally, there was a time in both of their lives that the last thing they would have wanted to have been labeled is "Catholic." As a matter of fact, Dr. Hahn quite freely admits that in his youth and college days, he was very anti-Catholic. If you have never done so, you should read Rome Sweet Home to get his own take on it.
I've also read that he continues to use some of your church documents as authorative which were proven years ago to be some of the documented forgeries of your church history.
Examples? Otherwise it's hearsay. Besides that, it doesn't detract from the fact that he does use Scripture a great deal.
