This already ..."Community of Resistance"<br /><br />This already exists among those I might call "Creative Secessionists" who, while living in the world, consciously limit the family's participation in the wider culture. Thus far they aren't consciously organized, but naturally coalesce around orthodox Christianity, traditional sexuality, and homeschooling.kkollwitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17691145638703824456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1370764850032156076.post-5104895881171330372010-09-02T14:21:16.341-04:002010-09-02T14:21:16.341-04:00"men and women can be corrupted by power and ..."men and women can be corrupted by power and prosperity."<br /><br />I'm reminded of this bit, which I read a few years ago (feel free to substitute 'Catholic' where appropriate):<br /><br />"Conservative Protestants have not been left out of these developments. They have prospered and moved into the middle class and beyond. Evangelicals may be protesting the nation’s moral breakdown, but they are not complaining about its materialism. They build large homes, shop until they drop, and use the plastic card like most Americans. In this sense conservative Protestants have bought heavily into the American way of life."<br /><br />http://www.directionjournal.org/article/?1463kkollwitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17691145638703824456noreply@blogger.com
