Neo-fundamentalists believe they alone are remaining true to the fullness
of the gospel and orthodox faith while the rest
of the evangelical church is in grave, near - apocalyptic danger
of theological drift, moral laxity, and compromise with a postmodern culture — a culture which they see as being characterized by a skepticism towards Enlightenment conceptions
of «absolute truth,» a pluralistic blending
of diverse beliefs,
values, and cultures, and a suspicion
of hierarchies and
traditional sources
of authority.
This envisages microlevel sovereign communities
of some sort, controlling their resources and shaping appropriate / indigenous technologies, and socially liberating themselves from
traditional patriarchies and
hierarchies, redefining without destroying their
traditional community structures and
values.
