I know I got us a little off track during our discussion of this chapter. I thought that the chapter was very unhelpful and assumed that to be the case. Thank you to Amanda and Kami for pointing out how helpful this chapter was to you in terms of talking to your coworkers and friends. If anyone would like to author a post that deals more directly with the main ideas of this chapter, please do.
Because I have a different view than Keller about the importance of a literal Genisis in terms of sound doctrine and evangelism, I am including a link to a summary of what I believe is the important question when discussing whether or not we take the creation account in Genesis literally. The Answers in Genesis site does have some stuff that I think I disagree with (like teaching "creation science" in schools and some really tacky cartoons), but on this point, I think they are dead on. The first time I heard this argument presented, I did a 180 on the issue. Check it out and leave some comments.
