Sexual by Design | Douglas Wilson in Bloomington, IN — CanonWired:

'via Blog this'

Some Thoughts:

  • Props to Doug Wilson for going into and extremely hostile environment. Living in Indiana I know that Bloomington, despite their embrace of "diversity," aren't very welcoming to Christian viewpoints.
  • I really liked Wilson's point about laying out "what used to be called an argument." The art of the argument is gone. However, we need it back. We need it back bad! (Perhaps a future blog post?) Wilson's detractors seem to think they scored a victory because they shouted louder than he did. Maybe you should focus on his arguments instead of yelling? Just a thought.
  • Wilson handled himself very well. Kudos on a great Christian witness
  • Also, kudos to IU and the IU police force for enforcing Wilson's right to free speech. A couple years ago a fire and brimstone, bible thumping, hate monger of a pastor came to Purdue. Editorials we made to prevent him from coming on campus. I wrote a letter that, in effect, said "Sorry Charlie. Purdue is state owner property. He has a constitutional right to be there and speak." I wish that opponnents of Wilson had decided to sit down and listen. A better discussion would have ensued.
Okay, that's it. Enjoy your bonus blog.
