Today's society loves anything that is 'progressive' or 'open minded'...but what about when these values dilute the truth because it is just easier to handle it that way? This seems to tie in with an idea raised in another post of yours - loving God. "Fundamentalist's Christians" have an idea of what is pleasing to God, and as an act of love, they want to fulfill that. They don't think that they are earning God's love, but are just showing him their returning love. It seems like that idea is wrong and close minded, but isn't this just a reflection of the way love is played out in the physical world?
