soteriology
I love slacktivist. He's got another post up critiquing the horrible theology in Left Behind. Choice quote (a footnote):
** "Arminianism" holds that -- nevermind. Soteriological disputes strike me as the tedious and un-useful arguments among blind men about whether an elephant is more like a tree or a rope. The idea that soteriology -- speculation about how grace works -- is itself of much importance strikes me as, well, very bad soteriology. I am not God's math teacher and I don't need to see all the work.
