I think the skepticism around Schaeffer derives from the fact that he's 
mocking *his own friends and family*, rather than sacred cows.

And his dismissive comments about The-God-of-the-Bible are... interesting. 
I wonder if he's still Christian.  (He converted to Greek Orthodoxy back 
in the '90s, I think, but does he still consider himself Orthodox?)

Anyway.  Even there, I'd say it's not so much "sacred cows" that concern 
some of us, as a sort of baby-vs.-bathwater thing.
