Odd, isn't it, that christianity has become such an intellectual exercise requiring lengthy study?  If we devote the time necessary to ponder the theories of theologians over the past 2000 years or so, when will we ever have time to do the things Jesus told us to do?  Was it Jung who thought theology is an attempt to rationally argue one's way into a belief one does not have?    Maybe, instead of asking us to spend more time studying, we should ask theologians to spend more time feeding the hungry, caring for the poor, etc?  Crawl out of academia and do something useful in the real world?
