Reply #9: Basically "Psychology 101"... [View All]

BUT...everything in the book is framed in true fundamentalism, so anyone uncomfortable with that would be unlikely to wade through it. If they DID, they'd possibly dismiss what he has to say as pop psychology or psychobabble.

And realize this: I'm not here as a defender of Hagee. I've seen him on TV a few times, I saw the book in the bookstore and was intrigued by its premise, and that's about it.

My conclusion...based on my own, very limited experience...is that he may very well be a crabby old bastard, but he IS NOT Jerry Falwell. He's smarter, he actually has some wisdom mixed in with the radical Christianity, and he's probably more than a lot of people are willing to deal with.

I get my information / enlightenment from a lot of different sources. I get portions of it from people I may not particularly like, respect, or agree with. I don't know where Hagee fits on that scale for me. To be honest with you, I read the book...it sits on my shelf...and I responded to this thread.

Hagee also wrote "Attack on America: New York, Jerusalem, and the Role of Terrorism in the Last Days"...and I DON'T own that one, and I DON'T read that type of book, but some people DO, and I'm sure Hagee has a cheering section for the full body of his work, for his entire philosophically layered onion.

That's the extent of my Hagee-palooza experience.
