Pastor Doug Wilson of Christ Church, Moscow, has written a short response to Rachel Miller’s discovery of wholesale plagiarism in the Omnibus textbook series, which he co-edited. I will not link to the land of Gog but you can find it on Google just as easily as the Omnibus contributors found the content for their essays.
Rachel Miller has answered Mr. Wilson in a post entitled Wilson Responds. Please take a moment to read it.
Of suckers and those who suck them dry. Continue reading
Classical Christian Plagiarism. Continue reading
We would identify it by its proper name — plagiarism — and recognize it as a species of theft.

I DENY THAT I AM A PLAGIARIST.

Rachel Miller has just posted Plagiarism, Wilson, and the Omnibus, in which she reveals that the self-declared wordsmith Douglas Wilson of Christ Church, Moscow, has placed his name on the cover as an editor of six massive homeschool textbooks, each . . . Continue reading
But note this well. Cain is the first man who was ever born. He is the archetype for all men who want to dwell in the City of Man. The first man ever born of woman was the man who rose up and killed his brother. He is the pattern of worldliness. And why did he kill him? Because Abel was righteous, and Cain was unrighteous, and this meant that Abel was going to win every competition unless Cain cheated. And this is what all church conflicts are — the result of attempts to usurp and cheat. God’s world will be run God’s way, in accordance with God’s Word. But sinful and envious men are constantly at war with the inexorable law of God’s blessing.

Like termites need wood, so also unbelief needs the structures of faith that a living faith once built. They can’t get at the wood when it is still alive and growing, but once the living truth has gone through the sawmill of accreditation and become a standardized two by four of truth — watch out. A brief review will make the point — just imagine Fuller sitting in on a few classes at Fuller Seminary, Carl Henry dropping in at CT after reading the three most recent issues, or Thomas Cranmer trying to make it through the homily of the most theologically-minded dyke in the diocese. The word ‘scene’ comes to mind.

Once you understand that this is their foundational tactic, you will also understand how homosexual marriage has been mainstreamed, how creationists get themselves exiled to Dogpatch Bible College, how women wound up deployed in the Sixth Fleet, why the nation is deep in trillodebt, and how it is that the new bishop is a lesbian dyke from Ecuador. The only arena where the leftists have not executed this strategy effectively has been with the pro-life issue. They have had legal successes in that area, obviously, but they have not been able to pull off the cultural ‘you are hurting my feelings’ schtick. But virtually everywhere else they do it, it works like a charm. Tender-hearted Christians fall for it repeatedly, like a trout rising on cue whenever the devil goes fly fishing.

Now Wright wants to say that these things do not compare. He says that homosexual behavior is a violation of ‘traditional ethics,’ which is quite true. It is. And he also wants to say that behaving as a woman is not a violation of traditional ethics. Feminine behavior and homosexual behavior are not the same kind of thing. Right again. But this sidesteps the question neatly, because putting on a bishop’s mitre is not behaving like a woman. It is behaving like an ecclesiastical dyke.
