Too many American (and other) Christians revel in feelings and/or morality and don't care to develop a biblically-shaped Zeitgeist or worldview. The result is folk religion rather than classical, historical Christianity which has always included sound theology.

The idea of having no limits, either through education or money or possessions or power, is radically alien to everything the Bible assumes and says.

Before saying 'I disagree' be sure you can say 'I understand.'

Scripture is our norming norm and tradition is our normed norm and that in a doctrinal controversy Scripture alone has absolute veto power while The Great Tradition (orthodox doctrine) has a vote but not a veto.

Knowledge has come to be defined as what can be proven by secular evidence and arguments.

Humanism cannot survive on a purely secular platform.

For Christians ultimate reality is and can only be a personal, sovereign, holy, and loving God. But even some Christians, under extra-biblical and even anti-Christian cultural influences read the Bible as pointing to something not ultimate, such as material wealth, health, happiness, power, etc.
