One thought on “Wright, pomo, Bible

    Nice link. One problem I saw is that Wright says that note everyone who questions certain parts of the NT is a liberal, but then Wilson goes on to criticize this claim on the basis that anyone who is a teacher/elder who criticizes this is open to the charge of liberal. There is a big difference in teachers and everyone else which is made clear by the structure of Wilson’s own criticism. I basically agree with Wilson, but now of all times, we must be careful to criticize the author’s actual statements not caricatures or amplified notions. To be charitable, Wright may have had in mind honest Christian laypeople who have trouble with certain teachings. They are not necessarily liberals. They may be wrong or in need of teaching, but liberal isn’t the necessary category they fit in to.
