Evangelical thinkers take an enlightened view of scriptural inerrancy. They concede the need for textual criticism, admit that many passages must be interpreted symbolically rather than literally.

Perhaps Immoral. Like any genius, Keynes had plenty of faults and shortcomings. Even his admirers admit that he could be maddeningly abstruse and confusing.

Ever since be discovered Santa was a fake, he's been verbally conscious of the things which are wrong with Christmas. It seems a crystallization of all the things he considers "sick in our society"--he won't even admit that he still likes to see "A Christmas Carol" performed on TV or that those same damn carols do get to him now and them. But the Maiden Aunt knows, for beneath her dignity and austerity she is an incurable romantic. After all, those wreaths still do appear on colonial...
