To be an NYTlistze author about religion, you have to 'apologize' (not, as it were, to be a classic apologist, say, in the form of CS Lewis).
Warren believes he can 'apologize' for hell, but more meta, for the teaching of hell.
In doing so, he has become another garden-variety troll -- hardly a heretic, he's just not that good -- and trolls deserve to wander under bridges without a flock to tend.
Definition, plz?
Apostasy has its costs. But I think Rob will be happier as a Hollyword TV new-age spiritual guru than he ever was a Christian impersonator.
