Does anyone else find it interesting that conditional friendship is both a rallying cry and a selling point to these guys? Come to our conference and we'll be your friend (as long as you are exactly like us and do as we say)!

You know it's tough if friendship has to be emphasized and isn't just assumed.

It seems to me that Sexton is trying to go beyond this point to some sort of real cooperation among the various camps of fundyism. His problem is that every time a prominent fundy speaks at one of those conferences, he is lambasted by his own compatriots for compromising. Fundys are too paranoid about avoiding the appearance of evil to ever be "friends" for very long.

I walk with bare, hushed feet the ground Ye tread with boldness shod;
I dare not fix with mete and bound The love and power of God. - J.G. Whittier
