Good points, now I'm wondering if ...Kaor, Jim!<br /><br />Good points, now I'm wondering if Peter Berg was a Lutheran. Or one of the other more "high church" Protestant communions.<br /><br />Hmmm, we see mention of Jerusalem Catholics, Jews, Buddhists, and one mention of Islam in the Technic stories, but no PROTESTANTS are mentioned by name, which does seem rather curious. Unless we should understand those "Christian variants" on Nyanza to be Protestants.<br /><br />Ad astra! SeanSean M.

Your point ...I forgot to make additional comments.<br /><br />Your point (iii). I remember my dismay and horror when I read that part of THE PESHAWAR LANCERS about the Anglicans of India succumbing to the errors of Hinduism, such as polytheism, recincarnation, ritual purity, caste, etc. And I noted with approval how the French Crown Prince, a Catholic, very plainly disagreed with all of this.<br /><br />I agree with your point (iv).<br /><br />Your point (v). I did wonder if the Nantucketer Christians became some what like the pre Christian Jews who waited in hope for the coming of the Messiah/Christ. Very odd and interesting, Christians believing in the coming Incarnation of Christ. Rather than, as is the actual case, Christians believing the Incarnation of Christ was a PAST event.<br /><br />Sean<br />Sean M.

There need not be any contradiction ...Kaor, Paul! <br /><br />There need not be any contradiction in what Peter Berg said about the "Church" deciding Our Lord came only for mankind and us later seeing non human Christians. Berg may had belonged only to a non Catholic part of Christianity which made this decision for itself only. Peter made no mention of which "Church" he was speaking about in "The Problem Of Pain." It might have been one of the Orthodox Churches, for example.<br /><br />SeanSean M. Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13973738112230622557noreply@blogger.com
