By now I have read Mr. Colson's remarks a few times....So we have turned the corner on abortion rights, homosexuality and soccer moms are now security moms because of 9/11. And therefore our society is back on the road to rationalism which is a victory for "Christianity"? We now have a real opening for the gospel?
Unfortunately Barna has discovered the church has dumbed down, so now what we need to do is dumb up! Huh? So Colson's remarks irritated David enough to cause him to expose his true emotions....so what, does that mean he can't express his opinion? Mr. Colson claims that universities can't teach ethics any more...that is rich from a convicted felon who practiced his own form of situational ethics that landed him in jail....way back before we knew that such things happened because we had lost our moral compass in favor of pragmatism. I'm glad Mr. Colson found Christ and that he has ministered to prisoners....But I'm sorry I don't think his arguments were "rational." However, I think that once we get beyond the obvious generation gap between Mr. Colson and David Hopkins, and beyond David's "attidude, then isn't it clear that there is a culture gap as well....
