A statement to sign...

Ah,yes ,nothing like a good document to sign to boost one's sense of being part of the herd. I signed one once and got a boat load of grief (in the form of anoynomous hate mail) for it from folk who were convinced that I was militant anti-semitic for not being a dye-in-the-wool premil-pretrib dispy. More recent items include the 'Word made Fresh' document calling for theological tolerance that made a sudden appearance just before the ETS was to address the status of Open theists like Clark Pinnock and John Sanders. Then along came the 'Presbyterians and Presbyterians Together' petition , urging more doctrinal magnanimity with in the ranks just as the issues surrounding the Federal Vision and the New Perspectives on Paul were making headway in conservative Reformed circles. So whither its conversations/dialogue with Catholics or Mormons or Muslims or whatever, these kind of things appear to be designed to give everyone the sense that despite our fighting fundamentalistic roots we are really peace loving souls who positively loath theological controversy-but what follows in their wake? You got it- a storm of controversy!

Ross, I've responded to your inquiry with the post, "Is the PCA fundamentalist?"
