I don't know where exactly the idea originates. Perhaps the skepticism of the Enlightenment? But it seems to me the two-kingdom view -- which posits the civil kingdom as governed solely by natural law (and not the Scriptures) -- will surely perpetuate this idea. How this is not entirely contrary to Vantillian apologetics is beyond me (of course I don't mean to equate ones vocation with apologetics).
