That's a good observation, the median of your average millennial's spiritual impulse is 0 to 3, which is the spectrum between laughable fedoraism and smoking weed while looking at pics of galaxies lol
I think JBP adds to the distance in that he is invested in keeping people in the stasis of slightly older liberalism and within the psychological instead of the metaphysical. He waffles all over the place in people asking him about God,and that's partially because of the audience
He is dealing with. My problem is that he just wants people to cope with modernity and like all boomers, he's too invested in the system to truly contemplate what living with a metaphysical purpose is, he abhors all political or existential solutions that challenges the norm.
To reframe the issue, how would you respond to, say historical missionaries in the new world or Africa, teaching syncretized versions of the faith? I would not look to them for nor evaluate them on the rightness of their theology if it was not a threat to the established faithful
Or are you saying he is a spiritual enabler, allowing the fallen a little succor but avoiding the realization of the need for repentence?
In a way yes, it is a good comparison. Perhaps I might be a little harsh on him, he's giving easy to eat gruel to the spiritually starving, so in that way he is a vital first step.
