Comments on a post by The Native Tourist
Okay ... I haven't read the book (I will, I will!) but my guess is ... ah ... (you're a cultural transformist, so premillenialist is probably out) ... (all my postmillenialist acquaintances thought you were one of them) ... (but you're a librarian, so you must be well acquainted with the imperfectibility of humanity in the in-between times) ... I'd go for amillenialist.
I am going to read as much of your book as possible before Tuesday so as to render my guess a little more educated.
As tough as our Moscow brethren have been on Amillenialists, I have great difficulty believing that they would publish an Amillenial (even if optimistic) on this specific subject.
Because of that, I hope that you are not postmil. That would tell me more about them.
More later.
Well.. having read your book, I'd say that you were a cross between an optimistic amil and a sort of pietistic postmil of the Puritan/Princeton type.
Now do I really need to wait till Tuesday to get the answer? Argh.
Btw, that offer for New Christendom is still there, whenever you want to contribute something.
I have not finished the book but I have yet to read anything that would commit to either Post-millenialism or Amillenialism and in fact, either should be able to embrace what you have written....with the exception of hard core Klineans.
Here's a pertanent quote from T.S. Eliot on television: "It is a medium of entertainment which permits millions of people to listen to the same joke at the same time, and yet remain lonesome."
