Re: Frustrated by N. T. Wright

Hi. I’m a new registrant, but I’ve been a reader for some time.

I suspect that one’s environment affects the way he thinks Christian culture tends to be. Environment includes the the company he keeps, the books he reads, the voices to whom he listens, et cetera.

For example, only in the last couple of years have I become at all environmentally responsible. Before my change, I would have asserted that only the smallest minority was sensitive to the environment. After my interest grew on the subject, I found myself in environmentalist circles of relationship, articles, and hearsay, and I realized it was a larger movement than I had previously thought. Yet it was only my perception of the movement that changed.

And so, I’m going to have to take sides… I’ve only recently been aware that Christians exist that don’t reduce the Gospel to be 100% about saving souls for the future while letting the world go to corruption.

Perhaps I’m mistaken, but my perception tells me that Wright has a significant audience to persuade (I’d guess the vast majority of American Christians).

Kind regards,
