Query: Good Writing, Bad Theology

A flawed book by David L. Robbins is still a good read. The author is a master of his craft, and Scorched Earth is absorbing. I was led to this book because I so appreciated his WWII novels.But a warning to readers with religious sensibilities: the book panders to our secular world's desire to make pastors look like colossal hypocrites and fools. Scorched Earth's preacher Thomas Derby makes the Scarlet Letter's Reverend Dimsdale look like a saint. In contrast Robbins portrays the book's mill workers as earthy, noble, fulfilled simple-folk. Derby is not a credible, believable character. He's just a caricature, betraying a lack of respect for organized religion.
