"Think of it like this: if you accept only 24-hour day interpretations of Genesis 1 within your church or theological circle, then the following Christians become unacceptable to you: Augustine, Charles Spurgeon, BB Warfield, and Carl Henry. Does this seem right? This is exactly the kind of situation in which theological triage would urge caution."

Just found out Christians used to kill each other over baptism disagreements so that's a fun addition to my knowledge of church history

"If you don't agree with me, you must not take the Word of God very seriously!" (not an actual quote, but close enough)

Nice try, but this ain't my first reformed baptist rodeo

- This book not sponsored by Answers in Genesis

We have passed from "plausible" to "requiring suspension of belief" to "utter nonsense" and I'm not even halfway through

So here's an actual quote (you may wish to look away):

"Could it be that the male’s generally more slow, plodding, and logically bent mind, is better suited than the generally more emotional feminine mind, to be a final decision maker? Could it be that male testosterone which produces a bold aggressiveness equips the man for effective leadership?"

No, it could not. But congrats on offending both genders!

Chapter 18!!!!!!!!!!! So good.

If I had a nickel for every time he has quoted Doug Wilson, I would have 15 cents. Which isn't a lot of money, but it is an alarming number of Doug Wilson quotes (i.e. more than zero).

My expectations for this were low, but holy cow

How is this a real book

"Read by Rainn Wilson"?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

If someone gets sent to magic school I will dnf this book at the speed of light

LFG BIGWIG

I have just about reached my limit with you Fiver

Bro you could not pay me to go into that giant rabbit burrow, that place is gonna be bad news for sure

Dnf after the introduction. The author's premise is that having union with Christ (something true for ALL believers) means that fathers are to act as prophet, priest, and king as they reflect Christ's roles to the church within their own family. That's a pretty wild leap and a dangerous line of reasoning. Also, to be consistent he would need to apply this to mothers too, which he unsurprisingly does not.

I think we could have trimmed about 250 pages of this book

Finally free from Radium Girls let's gooooo

Well this appears to go right to the very last page
