Keir’s Reviews > The Secular Creed: Engaging Five Contemporary Claims > Status Update

“Whatever our beliefs, these young people’s lives matter. Mocking or dismissing those struggling with their gender identity is never the right approach. But encouraging emotionally vulnerable young girls to undergo medical treatments that will distort their still-developing bodies and affect their still-developing minds is also not an act of love.”

"But if Christianity is true, then both mother and baby matter. And if there is no God, then ultimately neither do."

"Repenting of racial injustice means turning back to the Bible. Affirming gay marriage for believers means turning away."
"It takes as much careful editing to make the Bible seem like it supports segregation as to make it seem like it affirms gay marriage."

Good points on how marriages point (should point) to our ultimate marriage to God in Christ.

Many solid hits and numerous misses in the first chapter. At times, instead of laying out points which were quite obvious on their own the writer pulls scripture references that aren’t speaking about the subject at hand. What seems to be much more eisegesis than exegesis of the texts. The point that black lives matter is undeniable and critical, but glossing over the severe issues with the organization is careless.
