SENECA GRIGGS WAS NOT POPULAR AT I-MONK.
I MONK REPRESENTED THE DYING MAINLINE DENOMINATIONS. THE AUTHORS WERE RELIGIOULY AND POLITICALLY LIBERAL. NICE GUYS BUT WE DISAGREED.

Internet Monk closing its doors. Updated
After twenty years or so, the current editors of I-monk have decided to call it
quits. Internet Monk has attracted people who have either left Biblical
Orthodoxy or the faith itself. It's focus has been to blame evangelicalism for
their decisions. As I have pointed out in recent comments "Evangelicalism" has
become such a large tent that it is now very hard to define the limitations.
I-monkers have continued to assume it's very much like 70's fundamentalism. But
of course it is not.
In recent years my perception; I-monk is an informal wing
of the Democratic Party with a thin patina of progressive religiosity. With only
a couple of exceptions they hold to the liberal/progressive viewpoint of life;
Feminist, denying God's command that only within a male/female relationship is
sex permitted and suffer mightily from T.D.S [ Trump Derangement Syndrome. ]
They're a religious version of "Huffpo."
It is ultimately a depressing sight/site.
They have largely become "nones" or "dones." Their "Jesus shaped" spirituality
is Jesus without the bite. So many of the post and comments are actually angry,
dark and depressive. They have chosen the theological wilderness but don't
appear to recognize how very depressing that wilderness is.
I have accused them of "Sporting Life" theology. In the play/movie PORGY AND BESS,
one of the characters is "Sporting Life" who sings, "It ain't necessarily so; it
ain't necessarily so. The things that you liable to read in the Bible, well it
ain't necessaril so." That is truly the theology of I-monk. There is no rock
no anchor to hold on to. You are ultimately theologically adrift.
