The site is slightly amusing and very sad. But what concerns me the most is that they are sincerely trying to be godly. By separating themselves from 'the world' and from every hint of heresy (as they define it) in the church they are trying to avoid being contaminated. A hopeless battle this side of the new creation. Praise God for a saviour who makes the unclean clean! I may not be a separatist as they are, but I have my own ways of putting myself into a selective group.

I'm in a place personally where "in" and "out" are just too exhausting and lonely to manage. Keeping track of everybody's evil is a full-time job with lousy benefits, and the co-workers are a-holes.

What motivates a person to view themselves as part of such a selective group that the only members are you and Paul? (Jesus would be in, but his exegesis of Old Testament scriptures is quite suspect). It seems almost pathological.
