[Vision2020] Beyond Irony

[Saundra Lund]

Oh, this is just too rich!  Wilson, King of Plagiarism, conveniently
forgetting his own shameful history!  In addition, I've heard tell that
SSAIW wasn't Wilson's only instance of plagiarism - my understanding is that
he's also plagiarized from other dead authors.  He really ought to be
ashamed, but personal shame just isn't in him, although he excels at shaming
others.

 

>From Wilson's bloviated post and with respect to his "cooked scientific
research," I think that's something he knows a lot about!  Does anyone else
remember the Shroud of Urine, I mean Turin "scientific research" conducted
on the roof of NSA, IIRC?  So, Wilson is obviously in his own "Faker"
category.

 

Here's another quote I found fascinating:

"When we accept our charge from God, and set ourselves to true making, to
God-honoring work, He promises to bless it. When we set ourselves to shirk,
we are asking for poverty to come after us (Prov. 10:4-5
<http://biblia.com/bible/kjv1900/Prov.%2010.4-5> )."

 

I guess that's the explanation for why after decades of fundraising, Wilson
& his flock still don't have the cathedral they've lusted after for so long
& instead have to continue to meet in the Logos gym.  More signs that Wilson
belongs in the "Faker" category.

 

Has anyone else noticed that Wilson has become kind of a sad, washed-up,
full of nothing so much as hot air "has been" on the national scene?  More &
more of those who typically have been Wilson supporters on the non-local
scene have reached the realization that they can't even pretend anymore that
Wilson comes close to passing the smell test.  He faces some significant
theological challenges out on the US Christian stage, but as a Christian,
I'm heartened that while some locally have been willing to turn a blind eye
to some of his most odious positions & antics, even those who share many
theological similarities with Wilson have found things like SSAIW, sex acts
are of necessity non-egalitarian, defending & marrying off chomos, etc. most
ungodly.

 

Some things never change, but can't say that I'm that Wilson continues to be
a rank hypocrite who frankly excels at nothing more than ignoring the beam
in his own eye to focus on the motes in the eyes of others.

 

There's also something seriously pathological about Wilson's post - it is,
perhaps, the best example of projection I've seen in a long time.

 

Thanks for sharing, Rose.

I distrust those who know so well what God wants them to do because I notice
it always coincides with their own desires.

This morning Doug Wilson posts a remarkable statement on his blog which he
calls "Makers or Fakers
<http://www.dougwils.com/Shameless-Appeals/makers-or-fakers.html>  . But,
even I, old cynic that I am , am left breathless by these sentences.

 

"It is no coincidence that our generation suffers under a burden of
plagiarizing journalists, confiscatory government, cooked scientific
research, and so on. We have lost our understanding of the difference
between meum and tuum, and this is because we are listening to the serpent
instead of to God."  [bolding mine]

 

What is this about???   He is plugging a dagger into the  fat cracker back
of  his old pal and co-author of Southern Slavery As It Was Steve Wilkins.
Of course, Doug,  was editor and co-author so maybe he is finally confessing
his sins as well.  On second thought, probably not.
