Speaking of Spong
On the other hand, I was much dismayed by my good Quaker friends. I walked into their meeting house during the annual meeting of Friends. Of course there was much in the way of anti war paraphenalia (hardly surprising given the Friends), and also, unfortunately, on a small rack of materials for purchase, Spong's "Why the Church Must Change or Die." I don't know if this is indicative of the nature of this chapter of the Friends, but if so, let us all pray that they find their way again.
A while back, perhaps here, perhaps elsewhere, someone questioned the use of the term "Orthodox Quaker." Well, if these people follow that book, let us say they are not Orthodox anything.
