Comments on: Questions for Understanding Fundamentalism http://www.evangelicalresources.org/blog/?p=32 Evangelical Resources for the 21st Century Sat, 27 Apr 2024 03:15:29 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0 by: Evangelical Resources » Controversy at Cornerstone 2006 http://www.evangelicalresources.org/blog/?p=32#comment-277 Sun, 23 Jul 2006 06:35:25 +0000 http://www.evangelicalresources.org/blog/?p=32#comment-277 [...] Unfortunately, Jon Trott’s responses to events at Cornerstone is somewhat less than charitable, effectively putting Jon and Dwayna at odds with each other, generating more heat than light. In using the word ‘fundamentalist’, Jon also steps on one of my pet-peeves, using the word ‘fundamentalist’ flippantly as a word of derision, even calling Dwayna at one point an “ultra-fundamentalist”.

Specifically, I asked, “How did a movement dedicated to defending the inspiration of Scripture and the possibility of miracles slowly become hijacked by Landmarkists, Hard-Shellism, and Peter Ruckman’s King James Onlyism through the 1950s and 1960s?” [...] […] In an earlier post, I had asked a number of questions for understanding Fundamentalism, its history, and its place in contemporary culture.
