I have often heard the above smears directed to myself. The fundies think I am an unregenerate sinner because I have a glass of wine with dinner. The liberals think I am a rabid fundamentalist.
Nobody trusts me
They blame me for the fires in town
Say that Hell is where I'm bound
and pray that God will speed me
-- Larry Norman, "Hard Luck Bad News"
from his 1981 album Something New Under The Son
By preserving the status quo as long as [Charles Hodge] did he helped to provide safe haven for ministers who no longer believed the Reformed faith. That rot in the foundation fundamentally weakened the Presbyterian house.

Our good Dr. E. often recommended the book Crossed Fingers: How The Liberals Captured the Presbyterian Church. This article gives me fresh motivation to read it.

I just uncovered my copy in a box last weekend, and also recommended it to someone who was discussing how liberals take over conservative organizations. It’s a somewhat tedious read...but a fascinating work.
