“There seemed to be such a lack of grace in Redeemed Zoomer’s discourse and rhetoric, it frankly subverted the purported purpose of this podcast. I don’t know about truth, but there was a whole lot of tribe here.
The podcaster starts by making a distinction between liberal theology and liberal politics, but pretty quickly Zoomer flees from such distinction, and it becomes pretty clear that he sees them as one and the same. An equation between Christian orthodoxy and right wing politics is strongly suggested throughout the episode. I thought this show was supposed to be the opposite of that.
Zoomer also spends a lot of time elevating issues on which sincere Christians can disagree to matters of first-order magnitude. A good rule of thumb is this: If it’s in the Apostle’s Creed, it’s an essential article of faith for Christians. Beyond that Christians of good will should be able to disagree. You vote for Trump or downplay matters of injustice in our world, I can disagree with you and still assume you’re a Christian of goodwill. Likewise, I expect you to show me the same decency if I question strict church rulings on matters of sexuality or that outlawing abortion is the best way to reduce abortion. Zoomer appears to want no part of that, and even attributes such differing beliefs to “demonic forces.”
Especially disappointing was that the host enthusiastically agreed with Zoomer’s rhetoric. I thought this show was better than that, but I’m starting to wonder. Is this show serious about truth over tribe, or is this just the same old stuff I’ve been hearing my whole life repackaged in a more palatable way?”
