the beginning

I sometimes ponder why many have gone astray with Universalism, Pelagianism, and the like. The frustrating thing is that these folks seem so right - or nearly right - about so many things and it feels nit-picky, or even wrong to poke at minor differences. But then I realize that those minor differences are watershed points. It is these seemingly small differences that often lead to heresy rather than healthy diversity.

Melinda seems to have put her finger on at least one source of the problems I have with Brian McLaren.
