Phyllis Tickle - Are you afraid of this woman?

<sarcasm>

My apologies readers, unfortunately I’ve been naively exposing you to heresies that will undoubtedly lead you into eternal damnation: likely including gnashing of teeth and rock music. “Apprising ministries“, guardians of all that is holy and true, and warriors against the evils of non-orthodox thinking, managed to find Tuesday’s fanboy post on “The Orthodox Heretic” – Peter Rollins’ book of parables (which you can buy here, here or here) and out of concern for my spiritual well-being posted the following in an article about Rollins:

Here’s a couple of more illustrations beginning with a rapidily ascending philosopher/theologian of the Emerging Church by the name of Peter Rollins. As I am looking into the twisted teachings of Rollins I’m seeing at least a couple of posts a day where people are just now discovering him.

Take for example You Must Read “The Orthodox Heretic” from TheGeoffRe(y)port:

(Source: ROB BELL, PETER ROLLINS AND PHYLLIS TICKLE TOGETHER ADVANCING EMERGENCE CHRISTIANITY) (All caps so that you know just how urgent it is)

The coherent argument used in the post was that given that Rollins’ was endorsed by such Satan lovers as Rob Bell and the incarnation of Jezebel herself: Phyllis Tickle (pictured), he was obviously preaching an anti-christ message. Any positive effects such as concern for justice or the poor, or even just showing more interest in loving your neighbour after reading Rollins’ books must therefore be purely coincidental. It’s so fortunate that we have moral guardians such as Apprising ministries to keep us safe from any theology that might result in a practical implication in our lives.
