Christian Theologian Clark Pinnock Dies at 73.

The influential, and often controversial, theologian died August 15th of a heart attack at the age of 73. In March, the long-time professor of systematic theology announced he was withdrawing from public life because he was battling Alzheimer's disease. He was known to study carefully, think precisely, argue forcefully, and shift his positions willingly if he discovered a more fruitful pathway of understanding. He said he preferred to be known, "not as one who has the courage of his convictions, but one who has the courage to question them and to change old opinions which need changing."

For the most part, I passionately disagreed with Dr. Pinnock's controversial positions (and even plenty that weren't deemed "controversial), but I respected his willingness to "change old opinions that need changing."
