It is UNCANNY! The problem lies at their root: Luther & his doctrines... and thus they bear the same fruit. I actually wasn't referring to evangelical teachings in my situation, but Calvinism and then later Social-gospel teachings. Good to get some feedback. No, do discuss it here! It won't get discussed elsewhere. Koert: If/when you read through this tract, compare what applied 500 years ago to what Marpeck called the “evangelicals” and see how many still apply today.

I really enjoy reading your thoughts on this site...while I don't agree with you on everything, they are always non-essentials, and thus clearly not worth arguing about [although almost always worth discussing, but an online blog is certainly not the appropriate forum : ) ].
