There are some guys I read that rub me the wrong way. That’s fine. I am sure it goes both ways. Not everyone can be my Steve (or Moore’s Mohler). But the kind of bloggers I am referring to are just over the top in everything. Recently it was a guy who considers himself quite the theologian, but he really comes off as more of a “hack” (a guy who understands Reformed thought only superficially). He’s a cut and paste kind of guy, good at borrowing others words. He seems to be always coming after people.

I think we should engage church and culture redemptively, meaning when pointing out error we are also showing a better, more biblical path to follow. I think we can give our brothers and sisters the benefit of doubt when we aren’t sure, instead of leveling accusations against them. A charitable attitude goes a long, long way. Tom Ascol is a blogger who always demonstrates the kind of attitude I appreciate.

Some people are looking to pick fights, others are looking to help. Sometimes the line in-between is fuzzy, but a few seem to capitalize on it.

Ryan, We often tell people to not gossip, but also to avoid people who do. I think the same applies here. Not only should we watch our words, but we should not give such hostile blogs more hits by visiting them.
