Review title: At least he is upfront at the beginning
Product review: And so after the intro. and a couple of pages of the first chapter I knew I didn't have time for it. It's basically an ultraliberal view of the bible and Christianity. It is a great thing when one questions creeds and deeds, but Spong rejects so much of it that there really is no reason to call what he believes Christianity anymore. There isn't any new Christianity that you could possibly come up with by rejecting so much of what he does. I love Paul Tillich and Spong claims to be inspired by him. Yet their theologies are nothing alike. Tillich believes in a personal God and miracles. The ground of all being doesn't mean that God is no longer personal, it means that God brings us our being to a healed and true existence. It's not Tillich's way of redefining God, its his way of explaining OUR unity in existence. Any old fellow who sees something wrong with the church and then just cops out could have wrote this book it seems.
