    Exile (exile@poa.st)'s status on Friday, 19-Aug-2022 03:46:57 JSTExileExile

    "That old time religion b/c we say so" was no defense against modernity two centuries ago and it's not one now.

    "Deus vult" hasn't really worked since the Enlightenment and by the time Nietzsche declared god dead, it was certainly a spent argument.

    Christians need to take on modernity, honestly address the challenges, resist the subversive elements and push back on the oppression.

    To do that, they need pastors and priests and preachers who are willing to do the hard and never-ending work of discernment and teaching. Every day - taking the world as it is.

    Simply saying "read the Book" or "here's what the Book says" isn't enough.

    It's lazy and it's exactly what Jung talked about with his father the pastor - a man whose faith was grounded in words and study who had never had a mystical experience in his life. All brain, little heart, no soul.

    Destroying the unbelievers with facts and logic isn't enough - setting aside the fact that what you're labeling as facts and logic are really preferences and interpretations.
