This is a bit of a follow-up to the Apprising Ministries post Trouble In Emerging Church Paradise?, which involves what Tony Jones, the heretical “theologian in residence” at the EC church of his equally heretical quasi-universalist pastor Doug Pagitt, says in Tony Jones: Stop Performing (Legal) Marriages!

If you didn’t know Andrew Jones, who blogs as Tall Skinny Kiwi, is a very well-respected figure around the camps of Emerging/ent/ence Christianity; and more and more you’ll even also see his blog linked at the websites of conservative evangelicals e.g. Steve Camp.
