NewUnity of truth

Fri, 02/01/19

Some good thoughts. He’s all wet on item #2 though. It’s ultimately impossible for the Christian faith to cohere without firm belief in the unity of truth, if you think it through. Eakin makes the the common mistake of conflating “truth” with “perceptions of truth” or “truth claims” and also seems to argue that when Christ claims God’s word is truth (etc.) He is claiming there is no truth anywhere else. Think about that… for even ten seconds.

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.
