    I see what you're saying. John Haught argues that one of the major faults with these three authors is that they ignore, or refuse to engage with contemporary theology...he sees it as them setting up a straw man argument against a literalist faith that has very little in common with the dominant streams of religious thought...I personally think they just aren't very intrigued by the concept and don't feel much like delving into such a broad and daunting school of thought.
