When Both, Neither

A popular news item has lingered in my mind all day. I was initially going to post on this peculiar happening, but then realized it would probably be blogged to death by the end of the day and I could just link to someone else’s post. Sounds lazy doesn’t it? Yep. But thanks to Dr. Mohler, President of Southern Seminary, my sneaky suspicion of the newsworthy nature of this item proved veracious.

Basically the news is that an Episcopal priest, one Reverend Ann Holmes Redding, is claiming to be both a Muslim and a Christian simultaneously. She writes Jesus’ claims off as metaphorical and seeks to harmonize the two (historically and rightfully) opposed belief systems. What a kook.

When you try to be both, Ms. Redding, you end up being neither; neither Muslim nor Christian.

The latest episode of the Albert Mohler Radio Program treats of this news (stream and/or download MP3). I’m sure he was equally flabbergasted (I haven’t listened yet, but I trust and enjoy his word).

Read a full treatment of the news on VirtueOnline, “The Voice of Global Orthodox Anglicanism.”
