Doug Wilson Says ‘Paedocommunion Consistently Expresses Christ’s Purposes In Giving Us the Sacraments’

| Opinion by Nathan Wells
“...an infant....participated in the sacrament in utero for nine months, and continues to participate at that same level until he is weaned. So in our congregation, the time between such organic participation and individual participation is very short, and corresponds to a similar transition on the physical level between milk and solids. So I don’t see such a child being excluded from anything.” — Doug Wilson

Doug Wilson Says ‘The HIV Virus Is Harmless’

| Opinion by Nathan Wells
“If by AIDS you mean that the HIV virus is present in your body, then I would refer you to the book Inventing the AIDS Virus by Peter Duesberg. It is quite possible that your situation does not warrant abstention from sex at all—but only because the HIV virus is harmless.” – Doug Wilson

Doug Wilson Says ‘Paul Says That Women Who Turn Aside After Satan Are Women Who Avoid Marriage, Avoid Having Babies, And Who Avoid The Domestic Arts.’

| Opinion by Christiana Wells
“And Paul says that women who turn aside after Satan are women who avoid marriage, avoid having babies, and who avoid the domestic arts. That’s how women turn aside after Satan. And all God’s people said yikes.” — Doug Wilson

Doug Wilson Says ‘Children of Obedient Believers Will Become Believers.’

| Opinion by Nathan Wells
“Now many children of believing parents do not become believers themselves. At the same time, children of obedient believers will become believers. ‘Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it’ (Prov. 22:6). The sovereign God uses means to accomplish His purposes in election, and His appointed and revealed means for the conversion of covenant children is obedient parents–not elect parents who are disobedient in how they bring up children.” — Doug Wilson

Doug Wilson Says ‘Raise Your Hand If You Knew That The Westminster Confession Taught Baptismal Regeneration’

| Opinion by Nathan Wells
“Raise your hand if you knew that the Westminster Confession taught baptismal regeneration...Baptism means that the one baptized has a sign and seal of the covenant of grace, has been grafted into Christ, has the sign and seal of regeneration and forgiveness of sins, and has the obligation to walk in newness of life...baptism is efficacious. But the efficacy of the sacrament is not tied to the moment when it is administered. By means of baptism, this efficacious grace is conferred on the elect at the appropriate time, the time of conversion, and it is the applied grace of their baptism.” — Doug Wilson

Doug Wilson Says ‘Our Ministry’ to Convicted Pedophile Has Not Put ‘Any Children In Our Church Community’ at ‘Risk’

| Opinion by Nathan Wells
“Our ministry to Steven, in other words, has not been conducted at the expense of any children in our church community, or in a way that puts any of them at risk.” – Doug Wilson

Doug Wilson Says Pedophiles Should Be Put to ‘Death’ But The Penalty For The Pedophile In My Church Should Be ‘Measured and Limited’

| Opinion by Nathan Wells
“But when we are dealing with young children who are abused by adults (pederasty, child porn, etc.) the penalty for those guilty of the crime should be death.” – Doug Wilson

Doug Wilson Says Read My Theology Book with a ‘Willing Suspension of Disbelief’ Because ‘Wouldn’t It Be Glorious If This Really Were True?’

| Opinion by Nathan Wells
“So here is my proposal...read this little book as though it were a work of fiction. Just for a short while, I am asking for that willing suspension of disbelief. And if that request is granted, then I believe that a striking feature of this kind of historical optimism will become plain. Every Christian can agree on one thing at least\. Wouldn’t it be glorious if this really were true?” — Doug Wilson
