About the Book

The author suggests that many primitive ideas are held as traditional. This assumes that primitive folks knew more about life and the world than modern man. Thus tradition is a straight jacket that imprisons its victims in ancient lore. Why not update asks Mr. Johnstone. What reason might we have to set primitive knowledge above ours in these matters. If God is beyond the understanding of modern man how could primitives understand? People who “knew” that the earth was flat do not seem like authorities on God, righteousness, love or any other significant issue found in modern life. The bible is filled with ideas. Some are brilliant and some totally ridiculous. An example is the instruction given about how to go to war and how to conduct that war. Deut 20 chapter.
