The Naivete of Christians
With over 10 million copies now in print and over 110 consecutive weeks on the New York Times bestseller list, 'The Shack' is an unparalleled phenomena within American Christianity. Rumors of a movie have been swirling since publication and it seems inevitable that the book will be produced for the cinema. This will only widen the audience of the man-centered message so enthusiastically received by naive Christians.
Christians who have no worldview grounding, no theological grounding, and no historical context for their faith are doomed to follow any dictator, cult leader, or weird Pied Piper coming down the pike. The naivete of Christians may be seen in the incredible reception of the 'The Shack.' The author is concerned to address certain 'religious conditioning,' yet Kevin Swanson is concerned with the 'worldview/religious conditioning' of people who write books that favor a man-centered ethic and telos, Marxist egalitarianism (in the abolition of authority in the economic Trinity), and post-modern rule-less relativism.
