It is easy to do, but I think you are confusing Wilson with Wilkins; the PCA cannot ignore the latter. The former it may very well be prudent to try to ignore. It is not unique to our time that such a choice needs making; do you ignore a contentious element that may self destruct or do you defend yourself and the truth. Tough call.

The Regulative Principle: Samuel Miller gives a succinct statement of this principle when he writes that since the Scriptures are the “only infallible rule of faith and practice, no rite or ceremony ought to have a place in the public worship of God, which is not warranted in Scripture, either by direct precept or example, or by good and sufficient inference.”
