Eu entitulei o meu artigo "Surpreendido? Eu não..." Al Mohler entitulou o seu, "No, I'm not offended" ("Não, não estou ofendido"). Não se sente ofendido, diz ele, porque, "em segundo lugar, não estou surpreendido."
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (BP)--Aren't you offended? That is the question many evangelicals are being asked in the wake of a recent document released by the Vatican. The document declares that the Roman Catholic Church is the only true church -- or, in words the Vatican would prefer to use, the only institutional form in which the Church of Christ subsists.
No, I am not offended. In the first place, I am not offended because this is not an issue in which emotion should play a key role. This is a theological question, and our response should be theological, not emotional. Secondly, I am not offended because I am not surprised. (mais)
