On Adiaphora Not Being Indifferent

October 12, 2005 · Filed Under theology

As usual, Pr. Alms has posted a very thoughtful & useful entry over at Incarnatus Est. He posits that there is a linkage between the separation of flesh & spirit and the rise of adiaphora as a driving force in the contemporary church.

I would agree with Pr. Alms, and even extend things a little by adding the observation that claims about something being an adiaphoron have become a postmodern and/or relativistic catch-all way of avoiding the hard work of catechesis & making tough decisions.
