I have a Facebook group named Progressive Theology and a Facebook page: John Hopkinson Theology. Items from this blog are posted to both. Whilst I dislike labels as they carry with them baggage, nevertheless they are a useful shorthand.
I read articles and comments by self-confessed literalists and fundamentalists and recently debates between adherents of Calvinism and Lutheranism. It is unedifying yet fascinating. One Facebook group I commend for sheer barminess is:
'Sounds like progressive "Christianity," but ok .'
It is an eye-opener illustrating all that is wrong with biblical literalism and legalism.
