Larry,
You are just plain stubborn and obstinate when it comes to the facts of fundamentalism. I'm doing my doctoral dissertation in this area so I no a little something about fundamentalism. I also grew up watching it in action. You are the most arrogant individual I have ever had the displeasure of discussing any issue with.
I used the word reason to refer to "separation from modernism and liberalism." Doctrine was the problem and the reason for the fundamentalist movement, that's why I referenced modernism and liberalism. They attempted separation first by seeking to regain control of their denominations and force some liberals out. When that didn't work they withdrew from their denominations. Fundamentalism was a broad, interdenominational movement. The reason for the movement was to seek a soluton to the problem of liberal doctrine. I think you knew that's what I meant, you just like to argue and act like others don't knwo what they are talking about.
You frankly look stupid doing it.
Yes, this poll reveals that independent Baptists are doing exactly what I said they are doing. Once they pulled out they made "separation" a Baptist distinctive and applied it against former friends who didn't pull out "fast" enough. I'm surprised that you and I are even debating this because I know you know it.
In what breath you explain accurately historic fundamentalism, and then in another you apply it to thos who misapply it! You are a typical fundamentalist! Don't bother me with the facts of history or the Bible, just let me fight!
As to only one kind of fundamentalist until the 40s; Riley stayed in the NBC right up until his death. So did others. Eventually, those who wouldn't come out were labeled compromisers! The new evangelical movement was a "corrective" to this faulty doctrine of "separation" from believers.
