john said: Is a committment to Puritan living (I'm going to have to ask more questions about what he considers that to mean also) considered to be integral to the western meaning of the term Presbyterian? My view is it's not, but I'm not so up on my Presbyterian church history. I write all the above with the disclaimer that anytime I have these conversations with people in my church, I often can't understand very well what they are saying, so I could be misrepresenting what he really believes.
My 2 cents? I agree with you that it's not. But . . . . it's an interesting "take" -- IF you understood your pastor correctly, of course!
