    Yes, I saw them. But

    • Neo-Orthodoxy is based on using Orthodox vocabulary and using its own dictionary.
    • As a Baptist, I find it impossible to accept the Lutheran position on pedo-baptism and salvation.
    • 1 milliliter of strychnine in 1 liter of other wise pure water, still make the water poison.

    Me, a Puritan, don't get me started on those folk. I remember Obediah Holmes. I don't question their salvation but their ecclesiology was horrendous.

    Your view was the prevailing view of him and Barth when I was in school in the 60's. Many believed he did much good on the secular side but on the Christian side many believed he was lacking or lost.

    Another factor in leading to my opinion is the first and only person I've heard quoting Herr Bonhoeffer was the Neo Orthodox (lost) pastor of the modernist United Presbyterian Church my family attended when I was a teenager. (I wasn't saved until I was 19.)
