I think it's interesting that when people talk about him, they disparage his faith and his religious views because it's more important to be a gatekeeper than to accept outside of all that he held humanising views of many out groups that Christianity dehumanises.
The problem with Spong wasn't that he reached out to groups traditional Christianity often paid scant regard to. It was that he largely tossed out Christianity, and he didn't need to do that in order to make that outreach.
