UT Austin journalism professor Robert Jensen joined — and was welcomed by — a liberal Austin Presbyterian church even though he didn't believe traditionalist theology, christology, or soteriology. From a Texas Monthly article: "Jensen, who joined the church in 2005, did not come to St. Andrew’s in search of protective cover. On the contrary. In an article posted on the church’s Web site, he explained that he came in search of a moral and political community .... He told the congregation that he did not accept the divinity of Jesus, but he did endorse the core principles in Jesus’ teaching and pledged to be a responsible member if they would have him. That was enough for the folk at St. Andrew’s." [0] (That didn't sit well with traditionalist elements in the larger church and led to ecclesiastical trouble.
