The language can be exasperating Mary. Preterists don't like being called partial preterists because we are not partial, we are preterists. We usually will throw in 'orthodox preterists' to remind folks we're not unorthodox. 'Full preterism' is usually the term used for those who believe that the resurrection of the dead and final coming of Jesus has happened. We don't like THAT term either, we prefer 'Neo-Hymenæanism'. Some call the unorthodox version 'hyper-preterism' which is misleading in the same way 'hyper-calvinism' is, it's not preterism.

So don't feel bad if you meant orthodox preterism.
