Quotes by Stephen R. Haynes (?)

“if we can’t worship the same God together inside the same church buildings, then we will still knock on your door and so irritate you thatyou cannot worship your white God in peace, that you cannot escape thinking about the problems of segregation even on Sunday morning, that we are just letting you know that every single aspect of your Southern Way of Life is under attack.”
― Stephen R. Haynes, The Last Segregated Hour: The Memphis Kneel-Ins and the Campaign for Southern Church Desegregation

“In August 2005, after a federal judge ordered the Christian peacemaking group Voices in the Wilderness to pay a $ 20,000 fine for taking medicine into Iraq in violation of US economic sanctions, the organization issued a statement that concluded with a reference to Bonhoeffer, who asked of himself and his co-conspirators in resistance to Hitler, whether they were yet of any use. We too live in times of unspeakable peril and violence. We too live in times when questioning and resisting our government is the one path remaining to act for justice. We too have struggled and seen untold numbers of innocent people die at our government’s hand. We too answer as Bonhoeffer did, that yes, indeed, our acts and fidelity to our brothers and sisters throughout the world are not only of use, but of absolute necessity. We invite all to join us in a conspiracy of life to end our country’s war against the Iraqi people. 13”

“Eric Metaxas, with his populist Bonhoeffer, takes willful misuse to its extreme. Not since the death-of-God movement of the late 1960s has anyone produced so flawed, or so influential, an account of Bonhoeffer’s thought. Like those excitable pranksters—Thomas Altizer, Bishop Robinson, Gabriel Vahanian, etc.—Metaxas ignored the parts of Bonhoeffer he didn’t like and invented the parts he needed. 3 The death-of-God crowd read Letters and Papers from Prison and avoided the rest; Metaxas read portions of Discipleship and Life Together and not much else.”
