The theological collapse of Christianity Today

....is exemplified in this article to which ColdFusionGuy linked. How so?

Very simple; in the article, extensive attention is paid to the psychological roots of the movement attempting to apply Proverbs 22:6 to deterministic childrearing--more or less B.F. Skinner--but does not even mention the theological name for this belief; Pelagianism. Nor does the author even make a serious attempt at a Biblical theology of parenting.

Given that God describes Himself in many places as "Father," one would think that this would not be too difficult for someone on staff at Christianity Today. However, in today's rush to "theology lite", apparently that would be incorrect.
