Dr. Oord was my dissertation advisor, and this is a very sad story about how his denomination treated him for supporting LGBTQ+ people.
I’ve known Dr. Oord for several years. He is a giant of 21st century Christian theology. He is kind. He is unbelievably intelligent in both theology and philosophy. He believes that the point of the Christian is to express love at all times (I agree).
So many U.S. denominations are dying with huge declines in membership. Getting rid of the intellectuals in churches is not the answer and only hastens the decline.
I have included the link to the Center for Process Studies at Northwind Theological Seminary where Dr. Oord in the director. He does great work.
