Barth for Dummies

It could have been called The Plain Truth About Karl Barth.

The latest issue of Worldwide Church of God magazine, Christian Odyssey, features an article by longtime church journalist Paul Kroll entitled Karl Barth: Prophet to the Church. Karl is the current theological flavor of choice for the reconstituted, downsized denomination that originated in the decidedly daft ministry of Herbert W. Armstrong.

An improvement? Umm... well, considering Paul K. once used to write about lurid interpretations of the Book of Revelation, I guess it's a slight advancement.

Okay, to be generous, nice job Paul. But (yawn) wake me when you get around to Paul Tillich.

Yikes, so much for mainstream prostetantism: They've chosen another false prophet??

Great. Just great.
