Query: Spong must change or die

I do agree that Christianity does need to change, it does not emphasize love and we either get a Republican Jesus or we get a Jesus who is mostly myth, has no power, doesn't save sins, is dead, and is pretty much worthless. How the latter Jesus is helpful to anyone is beyond me. The funny thing is the problem isn't Christianity isn't Jesus or orthodoxy, it is the practice. All this is going to do is make people stand firmer in their positions. Both extreme liberals and conservatives throw God out and instead of blaming the faith, they need to change themselves. This book is only helpful to people who are modernist, it really doesn't help liberal Christians or help people outside of the faith. The scholarship is poor and the arguements are weak. If you want a different and more helpful perspective read N.T. Wright.
