Economic Theology

The practice of placing faith in an economic doctrine solely on the basis that it aligns with your political dogma. This holds especially true for economic doctrine that is refuted by empirical evidence to the contrary, or otherwise relies on intangible evidence as a basis for speculation.

Cracked Theology

A study of God that avoids touching on the painful truths of living a holy lifestyle—for example, a failure to warn believers of the dangers of embracing or condoning a life of moral elasticity or selective obedience.
Unlike the popular feel-good prosperity gospel, preaching about cracked theology is an unpopular topic in church circles—believers are seldom warned that if they’re not purposefully living a life of godly obedience, they’ve heading to hell.
