I'm afraid I don't have any references for you (although I think Gary North may mention the New Side/Old Side controversy in "Crossed Fingers"). And I haven't thought much about the subject beyond what I posted earlier.

I do want to say that although I was raised in a Reformed home, I in no way view my salvation as any better than those brethren who were converted later in life. Having a conversion "experience", though not necessary unto salvation, in no way invalidates salvation.

I do agree with you that experientalism and emotionalism are close cousins and where one is, the other will soon follow.
