A very helpful article on the current debates about empathy, featuring myself and @conservmillen. I appreciated Tiffany Stanley's efforts to understand our arguments (she does a better job than almost all of the evangelical critics). More than that, her article is clarifying.
Is empathy a sin? Some conservative Christians argue it can be.

Properly wielded satire can be a weapon of exposing sin in the hope of reform. What are its rules of engagement for Christians?

Appreciate Alastair's note here about swords and scabbards. When it comes to the proper use of satire, I've been helped by this list of characteristics of a godly satirist that @douglaswils put together in response to a review by John Frame: .

Sharing Options When my friend John Armstrong suggested that this publication run a critical review of my book A Serrated Edge, and give me an opportunity to respond to that review, I agreed happily....
I recently discussed empathy with Joe Rigney on the Unbelievable podcast. In his final remarks of the show, Joe remarked on my work on empathy, claiming that I had 'forged a really really sharp sword and then he's telling me not to use it. And I want to use it.'.

Gay-affirming historian wants conservative complementarian evangelicals to take her advice about how to be faithful to the Bible. For DuMez, sodomy is permissible; desiring a Christian nation is not.
Even conservative complementarian evangelicals should be speaking out against Doug Wilson, according to historian and author Kristin DuMez.

Relevant example of the pietistic kneecap, from a generally solid Christian institution:
President of @Hillsdale: “A Christian nation is impossible because Jesus’s kingdom is not of this world.�� .@PresidentNSA: A Christian nation is inevitable because all authority in Heaven and on Earth has been given to King Jesus, because he commanded us to disciple the nations,.

1) The problem with many paradigms is not what’s present, but what’s absent. 2) Propaganda cares primarily about what you do or don’t do (not what you think). 3) According to many evangelicals, the one thing we must not do is rebuild Christendom.
