The media of course thinks Christians who have rules are fundamentalists. In a review of a book called People in Glass Houses, the Sydney Morning Herald identifies a Pentecostal church in Australia as such. (Another bloggish sort of review is found at a site called Web Diary.
The woman who wrote the book appears to be an unbeliever, but what is striking to me is how much many of her complaints carry the same anti-authority attitude that many ‘young fundamentalists’ manifest. Granted, a great gulf is fixed between her beliefs and the beliefs of young fundies. Don’t get sidetracked by her infidelity – notice the attitudes and the complaints. Are they so different?
