[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 209933, member: 1640"] Sorry if you felt attacked. I had three majors in college and one of them was in religion. I read a little bit of Greek, became familiar with biblical interpretation going back to Origen, read the German form critics, looked at church history including the rise of late 19th century fundamentalism, was intrigued by a tiny fringe movement at the time which has since taken over TV evangelism called premillennialism, and I became very familiar with biblical texts throughout this process. What I learned and discovered helps me understand why it is the top seminaries in the country are filled with scholars and theologians of every stripe except fundamentalists. If there is an exception to the rule I have not heard it but my experience is that if you go to Harvard, Yale, Emory, Drew, Princeton, Union, Notre Dame, Columbia, SMU, Chicago, Vanderbilt or any number of other reputable universities, you will be hard pressed to find a bible scholar who is a fundamentalist. I did not make my statement out of faith but from own research and experience. [/QUOTE]
