Review # 1 was written on 2014-09-30 00:00:00 Rodney Newkirk United Church of Christ is an antisemitic organization. The UCC funds Friends of Sabeel, a Palestinian Christian hate group that cosponsors Iran's Quds Day rallies, organized by the Iranian govt as a global anti Israel propaganda event. One might ask what a church is doing sponsoring such a racist, hate-filled event but in fact, that is precisely what the church's legacy is. If you look closely, you can see Scott in this one.. There is very good reason that the UCC is shrinking so quickly as its members flee in droves. What happens is that every time church membership hits a new low, the UCC merges with a few other irrelevant churches to become "United" Church of Antisemites, or whatever new name call themselves. Scott Paeth is interesting tho. He now goes down in history as the antisemitic church man who partnered with hate group, Students for Justice in Palestine, an obcenely racist group that calls for the destruction of Israel, to attack a gay, black professor for writing a pro-Israel op-ed. Really sick stuff.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-09-06 00:00:00 Chris Snowdon Difficult to read, but still accessible. Voegelin tends to define his terms AFTER using them in analysis rather than before, which is confusing at first but actually appears to be a very sound method; sometimes terms are so complex they can only be elucidated through a chapter rather than a definition. This little book is more or less about gnosticism in its many forms and the murder of God that arises from such thought. He attacks Marx, Hegel and Nietzsche quite a bit, calling them "anti-philosophical swindlers", as their gnosticism necessarily prohibits certain questions in order to maintain an illusory teleology. I wish he talked more about why Christianity is a better alternative and how it succeeds where gnosticism fails, but I guess this is more an evaluation of a heresy than an apologetic. Mostly this is just giving me a bunch of ammo for my upcoming review of Atlas Shrugged. Ayn Rand was a cheap Gnostic "swindler" if there ever was one.
