The gist of the article is that Christianity and YECism are not compatible. He considers YEC to be a cult and urges Christians to abandon it like they did slavery.
Here is a quote from the article:

McGrath is a progressive Christian. I wonder how many of the xtians around here would support McGrath in what he had to say on the subject.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste -- don't pollute it with bullshit.
