Reply to two of the questions

 

1. Fundamentalism, at least historically, has involved commitment to five central theses, and the belief that these beliefs are central to Christianity, such that, if you reject them, one's commitment to Christianity has been compromised. These are as follows: 

 

1) Divinely inspired scriptures which were inerrant in the original writing;
2) Christ's virgin birth and deity;
3) Christ's substitutionary atonement;
4) Christ's resurrection, and
5) Christ's personal pre-millennial and imminent second coming.

Do you think the fundamentalists are right in asserting that these claims are essential to Christianity, and that they cannot be denied without giving up on Christianity? 

2. Why do you think religion had a revival in the 1950s. Do you think religiosity has declined since? Why? 

 

3. Was Roy Moore right to put a sculpture containing the Ten Commandments in the Supreme Court building in Alabama? Why or why not? 

4. Why do you think many evangelicals supported Ronald Reagan in the 1980 election, even though Jimmy Carter, his opponent, was the first President to openly talk about being born again?
