Having watched the train wreck at the University (My last formal class was called "Beyond Deconstruction" - the point was now that everything was deconstructed what do we do with our time!) I thought it was humerous that all the deconstructionists were completely lacking in self awareness to notice that they never would deconstruct Derrida or Riccour or Lyotard, Jamison, Foucoult, and absolute still all of the managed to worship at the feet of the eminently modernist Marx and likewise Darwin. <br />This of course was all right before the emerging church jumped onboard... sigh...Bill Honsbergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04836300411894206079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-37088469391933691092012-06-22T08:08:27.801-07:002012-06-22T08:08:27.801-07:00Hi Dan, your blog really touches me, have been rea...Hi Dan, your blog really touches me, have been reading it for a while... Just wanted you to know about a website i started <a href="http://www.readyourbibleschurch.com" rel="nofollow">ReadYourBiblesChurch.com</a>... It's a place for Bible study guides.. I also put a forum in that can be viewed from a mobile device.. I couldn't find where to contact you privately so I'm commenting, hope that is okay. :) God Bless!

Once I figured out that it was a form of absolute skepticism that eventually dissolves itself in its own acid...well, it made classroom discussions "interesting," to say the least.<br /><br />BTW, most secular Arts & Sciences profs are still deconstructionist fanboys, but I did notice (in grad school) a <i>slight</i> disillusionment beginning to creep in. I take it as a good sign. Deconstruction may have cracked their brains, but at least some fresh air is getting in.Halcyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12264274336322086961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-41402178555524397072012-06-21T12:26:37.375-07:002012-06-21T12:26:37.375-07:00It's always easier to tear something down than...It's always easier to tear something down than to create something.Nash Equilibriumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06528684112014026512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-21512388796614003502012-06-21T10:54:38.197-07:002012-06-21T10:54:38.197-07:00Way to stick it to 'em, Dr. Culver.

It is almost like this generation has replaced learning from the TV with learning from the blogs. I used to tag the MTV generation as those watching rich, spoiled kids on TV and thinking that is how life is...now I'm thinking we have the blog/social network generation.

For example, it seem many evangelicals apply <i>some</i> of the same methods when they claim Genesis 1-2 is not really meant to be a literal creation account, or Matthew 24: 29-31 isn't really talking about the Second Coming.mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00944721261850361610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-82729852769860902982012-06-21T07:38:26.111-07:002012-06-21T07:38:26.111-07:00Are you talking about the educational system, or b...Are you talking about the educational system, or blogdom?DJPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16471042180904855578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-2447461381327235422012-06-21T07:36:18.994-07:002012-06-21T07:36:18.994-07:00Yet more evidence that the educational system is s...Yet more evidence that the educational system is stocked with elitists instead of humble servants searching out the truth so that they can learn from it teach it to others.

His <i>Daniel and the Latter Days</i> was amazingly splendid, so I'm hopeful.<br /><br />I don't exactly have a favorite right now. I've profited from Reymond, Berkhof, Grudem. Most disappointing recent read (because of high expectations, not at all because it was horrid) was McCune's, which I still have to review.DJPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16471042180904855578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-7025224522394368892012-06-21T06:49:44.320-07:002012-06-21T06:49:44.320-07:00It has been a while since I read this ST, but I se...It has been a while since I read this ST, but I seem to remember Culver using a very similar strategy himself to promote his own presuppositions about a figurative creation account.Rob Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10893938431904825170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-46776136529263021922012-06-21T06:32:28.046-07:002012-06-21T06:32:28.046-07:00Dan...could we logically, not using deconstruction...Dan...could we logically, not using deconstructionism of course, now say the academic game is rigged?
