This guy typifies the liberal media, after all, he is a "journalism" professor.

I'm just waiting to see what the nutballs in the PCUSA come up with later this month to see if I move to a pew in a PCA Church.
Wonder what he does when the service gets to the part where everybody stands up and says "I believe in God the father...."

He certainly looks like a woman. Actually he looks like a dyke. All that is missing is a plaid shirt and baggie jeans.

I made the transition in 92. It was the best move I ever made. I would make the move this Sunday if I were you.

I don't understand why someone who doesn't belive in God would wish to belong to a church or even go to one unless they have some doubts about their own disbelief. Any church has the right to admit or refuse membership based upon their own doctrines. I don't go to my chuch to debate. I go to feed my spirit in Communion but then I'm old school Anglican and nothing much ever changes there except light bulbs.

"I don't understand why someone who doesn't believe in God would wish to belong to a church or even go to one unless they have some doubts about their own disbelief."
I think there are many good reasons to go to church despite one's doubts. The mistake here was allowing him to join the church rather than just welcoming him and encouraging him to attend. I'm sure there are many atheists and untold agnostics who appreciate the good that churches do.

Yeah, and how about a smile? Afterall, you now are basking in the glow of the fame that your perfunctory solipsism craves. Or is that just the standard Leftie immature pout? Fecalith.

Jensen craves attention. He got some by declaring himself an atheist and joining a (supposedly) Christian church, and then writing about it in a leftie rag for all his atheist buddies to guffaw about. The "pastor" of the church let him join for similar reasons.
Two more interesting questions are why would any Christians go to this church, and why would the presbetyrians put up with it.

The Methodist Church is eat up with non-Christians who like inflicting their liberalism on the congregation. I often hear people complain about Jesus being "narrow-minded" when He says He is the only way.

It appears that the degree of care and organization he puts into his office is quite telling.

I went to the PCA way back in the late 70's--from Southern Baptist. Didn't understand all details of Reformed theology, but I knew that what they taught was Biblical. I've found myself back in a Baptist church again (conservative, not Southern) but I'm longing to return to the PCA. I've just not found another denomination as solidly Biblical.

That's an excellent point. Our church went through the 40 Days of Purpose program last year and it attracted a lot of "seekers." They will not be allowed to join the church until they accept Christ. But a lot of them have gotten very involved in the life of the church. I think it's very, very healthy.

"Can a modern mind be included in the church, or must we use medieval verbage?" Rigby said. "We are doing this for our children's children. If we don't address the times, we are going to lose a lot of people." If you teach them wrong, not only are they still lost, but so are you.
You brought this false doctrine into the ministry...
...and Satan laughed, all the way to the BBQ.

Thanks for posting the pic.
If you look carefully, one of the books behind him is
"What's So Great About America" by Dinesh D'Souza, a fine book by a Reagan-era patriot. The two feet between that book and his brain are probably as close to conservative thought as this prof's ever come.
