After only a couple weeks of this year’s fall session of adult theology book club (for lack of a better term), I think I have come up with a formulation that nails it with accuracy and precision:
Pre-millenial dispensationalism is Bible study as conspiracy theory, not to mention the fullest expression of Gnosticism in almost sixteen hundred years.
Also, to steal shamelessly and remix from Fred Clark, realizing you’re not going to hell for listening to rock music and drinking Guinness doesn’t also automatically mean that there is no God.
The Gnostics are among us!!!11!!!1!
