You included at least one of my comments in your list. If you interpret
that comment as portraying my (several) YEC friends as being either
agents of Satan or "on the road to hell" you have more imagination than I
have.
I consider Duane Gish, for instance, as a friend. I think he is way off
base, and he thinks the same of me. What that has to do with friendship
is nada.
Tony Compolo and his wife have very different positions on whether people
who engage in mongomous same sex relationships are "in sin" in God's
eyes. See their public debate on this in
www.religioustolerance.org
but in spite of this they get along as husband and wife just fine.
Some things are -- perhaps -- salvation issues (I've been reading
Bultmann recently, and it is clear that his set of these is smaller than
mine). Origins issues are not, at least that's been my position for a
long time. I think Gish, to some extent at least, agrees with me.
