I think what bothers me most, looking back to the time when I'd proudly wear the Fundamentalist label, is the way I used (what I think now are) unbiblical standards for judging another person's walk with the Lord. That leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
I agree with you much of their lifestyle is wholesome. I have no problem if people don't want to dance, go to movies, or whatever - to each his own. Its a problem when we use those criteria to judge another's walk.
Truth be told, I suppose I'm still a fundamentalist at heart - I don't drink, smoke, dance, listen to wild rocky music. Not because I believe it to be sinful - its just me, I have no interest in those things. But, if I wanted to, I could.
