Quote: “‘Muslim fundamentalism, Christian fundamentalism, Jewish fundamentalism, secular fundamentalism – they’re all motivated by fear. Fear of each other.’” (Rick Warren) And what is a fundamentalist? “Now the word “fundamentalist” actually comes from a document in the 1920s called the Five Fundamentals of the Faith. And it is a very legalistic, narrow view of Christianity.”

Du Jour: And while we’re on the subject of Rick Warren, Herescope covers the reinvention of Rick Warren.

Request: I am in need of a quote from Phillip Yancey’s Disappointment With God. If you have that book and wouldn’t mind transcribing a paragraph or two I would be grateful. I won’t tell anyone that you own it!

Emergent: Ken Silva examines the Emerging Church in the context of pantheism and reports on his findings here.
