[asa] Wells and traditional Christianity

To all:

I have just learned of a new book by Jonathan Wells -- "The
Politically Incorrect guide to Darwinism and Intelligent Design." In
that book he has a chapter entitled "Darwinism's War on Traditional
Christianity." In this chapter, Well's presents himself as a
defender of "traditional Christianity" ! Here is a prominent member
of Moon's Unification Church who believes that Jesus' death on the
cross was a failure of his mission, and that Sun Myong Moon is the
messiah come to complete Jesus' failed work, speaking as a defender
of traditional Christianity! In this chapter he specifically
condemns the theology of people like Ken Miller and John Haught!
Wells writes: "In other words, a Darwinian who really, really wants
to be a Christian can be a Christian of sorts -- just not a
traditional one." No person who accepts evolution can be a
traditional Christian -- but someone who rejects the centrality of
the death and resurrection of Christ can!

This is beyond words!
