Puritan Board Doctor
I was challenged by a pastor-friend of mine who said that I "wasn't qualified to comment on it's contents if I hadn't read it through."
This is terrible logic. Is your pastor-friend critical of the Book of Mormon? The Koran? P*rn?
I asked my two adversaries the same thing: Would I need to tuck $10 into the g-string of a stripper in order to know that it was no place for a Christian? NO! I know that there is no place for a Christian in a strip joint, and trying to tell me that I have to 'experience' it first to really understand it is simply nonsense and dragging me down knee-deep into the barn-yard effluent. And now that I've read The Shack and am pointing out the deep errors, all I hear from them is "Well, it's not the Bible, you know!"
