You ignore completely what I said about why he is insignificant, just so you can state why you think he is. That approach is consistent with other things I said in my first post about how attention is being focused on him to make him significant for particular motives. In truth, that dog don't hunt.
Dear Sir, apparently you need some assistance adding, so let me assist you. First, you claim we are ignoring this ;

However, McLaren may be getting a lot of attention, because he has a Ph.D. in English literature (the people who love the term "post-modern"), and because he can make the discussion sound so academic, but the truth of the matter is, that if something new is emerging that arises from and is consistent with a technological culture, it is not doing so in the halls of academia, but it is a grass roots movement from "common people," and McLaren isn't significant to the great majority of them at all, if they even know his name. McLaren makes it easy for some Christian academics who want to stay with human tradition in the Protestant church and to criticize any understanding of church structure and practice different than their own, which has afforded them so much prestige. But McLaren's views in the reality of what is actually occurring don't count for very much at all.
Now, LOOK it has not been ignored.

Second, if you will re-reread my post I stated PASTORS are reading McLaren's material and SEMINARIES are making it required reading. Now it may surprise you however, these pastors teach the "common people." Many of the people who are capable and in a position to stop this heresy are themselves being entrenched into its snare. When the minds of leadership are poisoned the "common people" have no true direction. McLaren and others like him are significant. Your dog ain't hunting at all;

If religious books are not widely circulated among the masses in this country, and the people do not become religious, I do not know what is to become of us as a nation. If the truth be not diffused, error will be; if God and his Word are not known and received, the devil and his works will gain the ascendancy; if the evangelical volume does not reach every hamlet, the pages of a corrupt and licentious literature will; if the power of the Gospel is not felt through the length and breadth of the land, anarchy and misrule, degradation and misery, corruption and darkness will reign without mitigation and end.
