I remember that conversation over on Faith and Theology back in the Spring of last year . . . I registered and haven’t heard squat.

I was just wondering because I don’t think anybody has heard anything. I am getting worried that they do not plan to follow through on that promise.

I didn’t really know where else to ask this, but have you gotten anything from T and T Clark on Prefaces for the New Edition of CD that you purchased? I have registered but haven’t heard a single thing.

Elias, I’m afraid I really don’t understand your question. Sorry. If you rephrase it for me maybe I can take a stab at answering.

The irony, of course, is that so many construct this very thing with Barth.

“He already measures and evaluates others only from the standpoint of whether they are supporters of this ideology, or whether they might become such, or whether they might at least be useful to it even without their consent, or whether they must be fought as its enemies.”
Hey Halden it is my first time here. sometimes the christian faith can be lived and proclaimed in a way that reminds the description in this sentence. what Barth wanted to say here?
