Separation and WhiteBoard
For the record, I think Mark Dever's theological differences with the other speakers at WiBo were abundantly clear.

Jonathan, a couple of the people commenting on your last post spotted the problem I had with the definition you quoted. I'm not sure it makes any sense to ask a question and not expect an answer or to act as though there is no correct answer to questions (even if we have to say we don't know what the correct answer is). It makes even less sense to then try and build an entire "ethos" or subculture on questions without answers!
So, here's my question, why are we spending so much ink and energy talking about emerging and emergent churches anyway? What is it about this "movement" that captures our attention, and sometimes ire? I've been listening to the positions and counter-positions, but is there really anything there that warrants the energy channeled at this "thing"? Can someone tell me if I should be more concerned than I am, and, if so, over what exactly?
Sincerely,
Out of the Loop in the Caribbean
