Apparently the conversion didn’t take.

Apparently the conversion didn’t take.

I don't know. It's a very bizarre religion. There's no original sin or innate total depravity; J*sus didn't die in anyone's place; it's ethnic, withdrawn, and quietistic; it appeals to new agers; it promises "deification;" and even the ultra-conservative Father Seraphim Rose (after discovering the Church Fathers were young earth creationists) didn't want to go there because he didn't want to be associated with those awful "fundies."

Sounds to me like the conversion took pretty well.

Frankie Schaeffer had devolved into a leftist political hack. He suffers from “living in daddy’s shadow” syndrome knowing he could never hold a candle to Francis Schaeffer SR’s gifted “Renaissance man” intelligence.

As the son of Francis Schaeffer (30 January 1912 – 15 May 1984), an American Evangelical Christian theologian, philosopher, and Presbyterian pastor, this son is now a Greek Orthodox convert.

I will add his father Francis Schaeffer Sr. was probably the best Christian apologist of the 20th century warning us modernism would progress to what we call 'post modern' today. He was at the vanguard of Christian apologetics before many others jumped on his bandwagon. Read most of his works. All focused on answering the skeptic and atheist. Not taking swings at various denominations of Christianity. He focused on the intellectual/academia scholarly atheist type. Focused on presenting the Gospel to them in "their language" and taking them to task in debates and seminars. He would even invite atheist scholars to his L'Abri retreat.

He starts with a reference to Pope and the movie The Exorcist, then devolves into an abyss of irrationally. Perhaps lithium would help.

Extreme doubt obtains in *my* mind that there is a sufficient quantity of said lithium, either mined already, or still in the earth's bosom, to help him with curing his delusions...

He repeats the same talking points from over a decade ago mixed with the usual anti-Christian hate. His fear of conservatives/Christians is second only to his fear of thinking for himself.

The hysteria abounds. So much for tolerance by the left.

I think you are correct. There are rough times ahead.

Alarmed by the Supreme Court pandering to the extreme religious right in the Hobby Lobby case, the new pope might ask “Who is responsible for this?”

While GOD asks...





Are you still killing your unborn?

-- GOD


 


What's it been now?


55 - 56 MILLION Americans that NEVER saw daylight?

Franky Schaeffer claiming Pope Francis is on his side? Goes to show that the Left is ignorant of who Francis is. Back in March, the Greens meet with Pope Francis and other officials of the Vatican.
