It's not really a surprise that CAP doesn't like Beowulf. What's amazing is part of his review about the nudity in the work:
What must it be like, i often wonder. To have the spirit granting you discernment. Do you just not see the verses in The Books that are not God-breathed? Or are there little footnotes, hypertexting, to show you which words are holy, which are secular interpolations?
Do you have a choice? Is it like a pair of 3-D glasses? With discernment in place, you only read the HOLY Holy The Books, without them, you see what all the uninspired heathen see...
What a terrible burden it must be, having to sit through movies that make no pretense to Christain principles to see how they line up with Christain principles.
Quote:Wow.
It does seem rather reaching to say the parent poem (text) presents nudity. I have read lots of poems but never have I seen nudity in a poem. Even the nudity in some Bibles was not there when the inspired pen was put to paper; man put nudity in the Bible, not God.
