Hi Jerry,

Thank you for your reply. Is this particular issue w/in open theory wrong? Seems it to me. The reason I bring it up is because it's becoming an issue w/in Christian circles. My answer has been basically what you said, but the flip side is that it still doesn't clear the air fully with others. Maybe you just leave it at that in the end, but, what do you do when someone attends a church that is open to that? The church we presently attend hasn't gone to this end, but they have started embracing other issues which seem seeker-friendly, which is causing me to search my (and others) hearts for another church.

In Christ
