Andrew Sullivan

I must admit: Andrew Sullivan intrigues me. He is Roman Catholic, and he believes in the deity of Jesus Christ. He is a gay man who supports same-sex marriage. He also claims to be a conservative who actively supported George W. Bush in 2000, although his enthusiasm for Bush's policies have waned of late (to put it mildly). Sullivan's latest book is The Conservative Soul. After years of blogging on his own, he joined with Time magazine to create The Daily Dish.

Dr. R. Albert Mohler, president of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, recently conducted an interview with Sullivan on Mohler's radio program. The transcript can be found here. Mohler wrote an article about Sullivan just over a year ago, which you can read here.

Hugh Hewitt wrote a rather dismissive article about Sullivan, which you can read here. He begins with this sentence: "Andrew Sullivan may be the biggest wasted talent in all of the English speaking world." Hewitt also conducted a radio interview - albeit before Mohler - and you can read the transcript here.

Mark D. Roberts has a series entitled Andrew Sullivan, Hugh Hewitt, and Retrofitted Christianity.
