This author is too glib and haughty in attitude about the issues he raises. He protests too much not to reveal his personal involvement with the Bible. If he truly had so little regard for the Bible, why would he invest so much antagonism for it? He would simply not bother. Perhaps the real burning issue is his own struggle with and search for faith! There is something very sad about his stance and seemingly causual and one sided treatment of the subject matter. His turmoil is obvious to me. Perhaps true research and comprehensive study of deligent modern theologians would give him the peace and humility that would serve him much better. I am also disturbed about his readers that will accept this as truth and not, what seems to me, just one man's struggle for a reasonable faith. May I suggest that a thorough reading of Hans Kung or Karl Barth would serve him and his readers far better.
