I have read Blum's book and have concluded that Dubois was a man of both reason and faith; it seems as though his faith in God was much stronger than his faith in religious institutions. Note: I am not drawing a CS Lewis comparison here. DuBois was clearly a part of the left -- as for the Christian left, I am still trying to decide.<BR/><BR/> I am reviewing my notes as I try to conclude whether or not DuBois was really an agnostic, which Blum contends he was not; yet some of his rational question of faith and of man causes even the most astute reader of DuBois to pause. Blum gives ample evidence supporting Dubois faith. I continue to find doubt in his life. I look forward to sharing my review with readers of your blog.Edward Carsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17131417460187635912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37589721331585843.post-57212360172355029972007-07-06T14:13:00.000-06:002007-07-06T14:13:00.000-06:00Paul, thanks again for the HT, and a very solid qu...Paul, thanks again for the HT, and a very solid quote from Ed Blum's book. Emerson and Woo's book is a very important work, and of course I should remind interested readers that Blum co-wrote a chapter to that volume.<BR/><BR/>I look forward to more of your observations and reflections.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13853976805605495345noreply@blogger.com
