A metaphor for UOJ argumentation. |
Fake-o-Blog:
Joe Krohn said he was done with the discussion on LQ. There are some participants, however, who still don't understand the argument Krohn started. Unfortunately, it's not just Jackson who's had a poor theological education. There are ordained pastors on LQ who don't seem to grasp the true Biblical concept of UOJ. There are others who are seminary students who apparently haven't even read Pieper's Dogmatics yet. They should stop typing and start studying, then maybe they could hold an intelligent debate and discussion on LQ.

The anonymous writer, quoted above, proved that he has no concept of higher education, especially graduate school.
Church schools are parochial. They train people to belong to their denomination, to be loyal to the standards of the day. Denominational doctorates are not highly valued. John Johnson, the former president of Concordia, St. Louis, said his Concordia doctorate was worthless outside of the LCMS. He also earned one at St. Louis U.
Although I made a point of the religious affiliation of graduate schools, they do not belong to any denomination and do not make any effort to conform students to a denominational standard. They adhere to academic, scholarly standards and flunk doctoral students out accordingly. They are also highly selective. The average ND student graduated with highest honors from his or her college.
When mediocre students, who never progressed farther than a denominational MDiv, prate about higher education, it is so much fun. Note that the fake blog comes from the Fox Valley plagiarists. What training have they had? According to their own boasts, they have:
- Affiliated with Willow Creek (Parcher).
- Earned a drive-buy DMin at Denver (Parcher).
- Plagiarized various non-Lutherans (Parcher, Ski, Glende).
- Earned a drive-buy DMin from Gordon Conwell (Witte).
- Earned a drive-buy DMin in CG from St. Louis (Kelm).
- Studied under Babtist Andy Stanley (Parlow, Ski, Glende, and others).
- Studied under Methodist Craig Groeschel (Ski, Glende).
- Plagiarized Swindoll (Bethany Lutheran Church).
- Studied under Mark Driscoll (Ski, Glende).
- Plagiarized Groeschel (Ski, Glende).
- Studied at Granger Community Church (Ski, Glende).
The LaughQuest drones tried the same approach, denouncing me for graduating from Notre Dame with a PhD. When I listed their beloved Ft. Wayne faculty members with the same degree, they fell silent, as though suddenly stricken with the truth.
The Fox Valley wolves go outside the Lutheran Church to learn ministry, not theology. Fuller training yields Fuller congregations. The same is true of the other false teachers they adore and emulate.
When LQ derided me for belonging to various synods, I listed the four synods of Al Barry, whose official LCMS history is quite dishonest in that regard. I also mentioned the many synods of Rolf Preus, a number that seems to grow each year. He established the Rolf Synod, only to see everyone leave and join ELDONA. I heard he was trying to get into the LCC and then back to the LCMS. It does not matter to me, but LaughQuest has typical Pharisaical standards. In fact, they make the Pharisees look appealing.
I have never seen Tim Glende complain about Larry Olson's drive-buy D.Min. from Fuller Seminary, Valleskey's and Bivens' study at Fuller, or his uncle's study at Yale. If I went to Yale, that is some kind of black mark. If Uncle John Brug went to Yale, that is peachy.
I can hear Lito Cruz, PhD, laughing from here.

This one is a kicker. I am laughing with tears because, that is really true.
Intellectual inbreeding dilutes the purity of scholarship. That is why you are doing yourself a disservice if you do not study somewhere else. You need that interaction and exposure. You get tunnel vision if all you receive are inputs coming from the same place. What is worst is that you become dependent on someone else's scholarship and methodology.
