Hi John, yes I do agree at least about Larry. He has people on with interesting things to say but I wish he would give them more of a chance to say it.
Long time uni lecturer, 'Schoolteacher Syndrome', I think it's called.
I shouldn't have linked the Universalist discussion because Wood has plenty of interesting things to say on subjects which aren't so automatically polarising.
But I think if you characterise people like him, who study the tradition and the scripture on this subject and dare to wonder out loud, while still submitting to the teaching of the church, pointing out out that's something that can move around a bit, as comfort-seekers and sneer quote them as "Catholics", (modernists, masons or marxists maybe!), you are not giving them their due.
