"Fundamentalism is not without its conventions. It has them in their boards and colleges and universities. In principle, there was little different."

This is quite a saga for fundamentalism on the Western frontier.

I remember being at the FBF National Conference in the Bay Area. I blogged the whole thing on Sharper Iron, but I missed meeting brother Brandenburg in San Francisco.

At the time back then, I think I was concerned in a book I read that Kent in his KJV position should not be categorized as being in the same camp with my LDS friends in the Corridor. And that is when SI crashed. Interesting days.

Honestly, I am praying for the men who are known as national leaders within the FBF “convention”, agreeing somewhat with Kent on the term.

I think that the FBF is being influenced in different directions by contemporary American Baptist men who write (Chappel, Schmidt, Doran, Bauder, Dever, Mohler,etc.). It is interesting where the pendelum is swinging back and forth.

If the FBF were to be currently given a direction arrow by literary media - it would be a down arrow. Someone needs to write a serious, historical account of the national American FBF in the last quarter century, I would be interested in reading that.
