"The Shack" by William P. Young, or Paul Young, is currently without a doubt the most popular book within Christian circles. In fact, its popularity is so widespread that is currently the seventh bestselling book on Amazon.com.

But should Christians be reading this book? Many other Christians, such as Matt Slick, have accused "The Shack" of teaching heresy regarding God's nature, especially the Trinity.

Matt Slick of CARM (Christian Apologetics and Research Ministry) interviews William Young, the author, in this clip and exposes some of the errors in the book. This clip is from Matt Slick's radio show, "Faith and Reason" and is from carm.org.

So....god has a penis?

[RAIDERJO76]

Drumrnva, did you hear anybody in this video say that God has a penis?

[Taylor2534]

sounds like they're arguing about the number of supernatural transcendent dice in a jar

[RAIDERJO76]

Taylor, can you please explain what you mean by that?

[Taylor2534]

@RAIDERJO76

We have some knowledge of physical dice. Even if we dont know how many dice are in a jar, guessing less than 20 is better than guessing 3,000.

But we have no knowledge of supernatural transcendent dice, so a guess of 20 is just as valid as a guess of 3,000.

They're arguing about whether a guess of 20 is better or worse than a guess of 3,000 when talking about a supernatural transcendent god.

[RAIDERJO76]

Well I'm sorry Taylor, but that simply isn't true, since both Slick and Young are drawing from a common authority when it comes to what they believe about this God; the idea that both are just proposing random, subjective ideas just isn't the case.

Now, are you an atheist?

[RAIDERJO76]

Can I ask why that is?

[fullygodfullyhuman]

I was a christian untill I was 23... It began at 21 after hearing a pastor tell a little girl (making a long story short)... that she wouldn't see her grandma if she didn't accept jesus.. and she would go to hell.

That didn't turn me away from christianity.. it just sparked my questioning... then over time... I changed my mind... but I'm still open to anything.

I'm pretty decided against christianity though...

[RAIDERJO76]

Oh okay, so may I ask why you are? Sorry, I just like seeing why people embrace the worldviews they embrace...

[RAIDERJO76]

Well then what do you mean Young didn't understand the question? My dog can understand the question, what's so confusing about it?
