Taking responsibility in either sense needs to result in something concrete, and in my case it means that I will not be co-authoring any books like this anymore. I will not be putting myself in this position again.

Here’s an analogy to show what it means to take responsibility:
A boy and his father are playing catch in their backyard. The boy makes an errant throw and breaks a neighbor’s window. The father pays for the window.
Here’s what Doug Wilson means by taking responsibility:
“Taking responsibility for the broken window needs to result in something concrete. I will not be playing catch with my son in the future.”
I laughed really hard at this. What a moron, right?
What a great analogy! haha!
The only thing I would change is: “I will not be [caught] playing catch with my son in the future.”
Everyone’s always taking advantage of poor Doug and pushing him around. Enough is enough.
