Quodlibet
Deceptive Rejects
by S. M. Hutchens
What appears to be rejection of God may only be rejection of religion, which is another thing entirely. Rejecting the "God" of a false religion, or of a Christianity (liberal or conservative) so faulty that it habitually misrepresents him, is not disbelief in the true God.
S. M. Hutchens is a senior editor and longtime writer for Touchstone.

—Alice von Hildebrand
"Here we do not concede one square millimeter of territory to falsehood, folly, contemporary sentimentality, or fashion. We speak the truth, and let God be our judge. . . . Touchstone is the one committedly Christian conservative journal."
—Anthony Esolen, Touchstone senior editor
