It’s vivid and straight-forward. Gives reader a clear analogy to attach to virtues and vices that are good to spark discussion with early readers. Almost assuredly will produce kids who are Gnostic Pelagians, but that’s par for the course for American Christians, so how bad can that be? The two elements most missing are of being called into this world, not out of it and love. Christian’s dismissal of his family and other pilgrims on the road does nothing but reinforce the idea that piety is more important than love of neighbor. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
