Francis Schaeffer did much good, but I believe Dr. Rushdoony's legacy is much greater, as he did not avoid the "hard sayings" of Scripture, which is something that many of Francis Schaeffer's greatest admirers often do. |
I thought about posting that.

JW: In the book, you discuss an incident at L’Abri when your father walked in on you having sex in the nude with the woman who later became your wife. He just kind of walks away from it. Some evangelicals are going to wonder, didn’t Francis Schaeffer lecture his son on premarital sex?
FS: They may shake their heads in disbelief. But my dad didn’t take a moralistic judgmental angle. If it had been a L’Abri student, he wouldn’t have said anything. It’s not that he wouldn’t express opinions on sexuality, but Dad was just not that kind of judgmental person. He had a very strong moral chord but not in terms of a church-lady kind of response to that sort of situation with a teenager.

Granted Franky moves from mixing the truth to outright lying, there might be something to the above.
