Saving the World According to the Word
Stanley Fish's Save the World on your Own Time is a call to secular compartmentalization. Teaching is teaching and that's all. Saving the world doesn't belong. You can aspire to teaching for teaching's sake, but don't aim higher unless you are off the clock.
What?
It's true that the academy can't save the world, but the world is the Lord's and the fullness thereof. Christians should laugh at Fish's paltry view of life and heed Christ's call to be "fishers of men."
