"The word 'modernist' is code..."

Via Kevin DeYoung, from the superb British series "Yes, Prime Minister," explaining "modernism" in the Church:

This would really be funny if it wasn't so true.
I was introduced to Yes Prime Minister by Dr. Ken Morgan,at the time Baptist Archivists in the Ontario Baptist Convention. It seemed to me at the time and this confirms that it is very polite Archie Bunker.

The question is while we do not have a state church, Does this also represent the nature of Mainline Protestantism in the States?

About "One Eternal Day"

The title, "One Eternal Day," is from the hymn "On Jordan's Stormy Banks I Stand" [1787] by Samuel Stennett, a prominent English Sabbatarian Baptist. A verse from that hymn refers to the rest believers will enjoy in the "promised land."

"One Eternal Day" will usually call attention to the work of others. This is my chance to pass along things that I enjoyed, profited from, or that say well what I wish I'd said.

I am a Baptist, a member of a church affiliated with Seventh Day Baptists, and some posts will reflect that identification.
