I have read it twice. Riddlebarger didn't deal with the opposition's strongest positions and simply ignored others.
As to spiritualizations: I am all for typological interpretations. I am talking about when the Bible says things that point to a glorious age (Isa 2, 11, and in the prophets when it speaks of the desert blooming and mountains dripping sweet wine), and people get nervous and start positing non-earthy interpretations.
Typology isn't arbitrary. Spiritualizing is.
