As I watched the annual History Channel festival of Easter and Christianity, a member of Brite Divinity School gave her insights concerning the adoptionism of Christ. It made me think back to a couple years ago, around the time when the Divinci Code was famous, when I was watching a similar program. This same woman, faculty of Brite, was describing how Jesus had a special relationship with Mary Magdelene. After I bashed Brite Divinity school for a while, I asked my roommate where it is located. He laughed and said that it is at TCU. The concern I have with TCU is that they are training “religious workers” to deny the aspects of the faith that have been affirmed since the apostolic era of the Church.
