Part of our need to keep our language for theology current rather than buried in the past, isn’t it? We do it with Bible translations, we need to do with theology.

yeah that’s some funny stuff, I cam out as emergent/postmodern (89%) then wesleyan (79%) with charismatic pentecostal at 36% and reformed at 32% - which is despite the fact that these last two are the spheres I generally operate in… LOL

Yeah - I did the test - we have a lot in common except on The RC deal.

I went through it again - and have discovered, no - we don’t have a lot in common.

quiet night down your way Mark?! Home alone, cooking your own food… blogging… just don’t drink too much red. That’s when I alwasy come unstuck - red wine and blogging are a bad combo!

Theological Quiz…

Came across this Quiz at Hamo’s blog. I’ve done it before but I’m a sucker for a good quiz, and this one at least makes you think. Here’s my result - I’m Neo orthodox this time, whereas last time I was more Emergent/postmo…

Kinda interesting when you consider that I grew up in a Catholic charismatic community.

You scored as a Emergent/Postmodern
You are Emergent/Postmodern in your theology. You feel alienated from older forms of church, you don’t think they connect to modern culture very well. No one knows the whole truth about God, and we have much to learn from each other, and so learning takes place in dialogue. Evangelism should take place in relationships rather than through crusades and altar-calls. People are interested in spirituality and want to ask questions, so the church should help them to do this.

The blurb bit is quite insightful for me. My Baptist Sunday school teachers would be a bit upset I suspect, but I’m pretty comfortable with the outcome - however the heck he/she gets it from some of the questions posed!!
