Just as the evangelical heirs of Puritanism diverged. Except that the evangelicals, even Arminian ones, have always been theologically closer to Puritanism. Yet you continue to insist that Unitarians are the "real" heirs and evangelicals aren't. I have now demonstrated that the ONLY reason you can give to exclude evangelicals as "lineal descendants" of Puritans applies equally to Unitarians. Yet you persist.
Your later quotation from the same source demonstrates nothing other than Unitarians' desire to hijack what they themselves rejected (this is obvious). And it certainly doesn't help the fact that the basis of your case has been conclusively shown to be false.
It's now evident that your problem is not ignorance but malice. As of #137, you lost. Anything further from you is just digging deeper in the hole you made for yourself.
No. They got up and left. Thus they are not lineal heirs in the same sense as unitarians are.
Except that the evangelicals, even Arminian ones, have always been theologically closer to Puritanism.
No they aren't. They share only in biblical literalism of the very loosest sense. In application of that theology, in worship services, and in their religious culture the two are virtually nothing alike.

No you haven't. You've simply made the gratuitous claim that evangelicals are closer to Puritans than Unitarians and provided a link to a unitarian text that, apparently unbeknownst to you, supports exactly what I said. Go look around the thread, AJ. You are the ONLY one here who denies that unitarianism is the direct lineal heir of puritanism. It's a common fact and a commonly known fact, yet you deny it. That leads me to believe that you are embarrassed of this association for other unstated reasons and therefore desire to hide it.
As of #137, you lost.
Curious. The contender decides to make himself the referee as well the moment his own chosen source material is shown to contradict what he's been obnoxiously yelling about since the moment he arrived here.
