If you think Phil Johnson was way off base when he argued that fundamentalists are more obsessed with the movement than the principles, just read the comments here for some excellent illustrations of that very point.
I am appalled but not surprised at how quickly the debate became about whether Johnson and MacArthur are fundamentalists rather than about whether Johnson's ideas are valid. Folks, let's please not fall prey to this classic tactic (common not just among fundamentalists, but among all those who don't want to interact with ideas) of ignoring the message of a presentation and attacking instead the person who articulated it. Kudos to the site owner for recognizing this and challenging it.

If you compare last yrs. pt.1 and pt.2 you see Phil has learned something more about fundamentalism. Most students at Central BTS, DBTS, and CBTS, know quite a bit more about fundy history than Phil. Phil needs to take such a course in fundy hist.
Why worry about what he thinks? He doesn't have enough experience or knowledge to make discerning truth staments on the subject. All he had was a platform at a popular conference.
Problem: We see roaches on the floor.
Solution: Let's turn off the lights.
