    This is very helpful. Good summary Mark

    I agree Mark--quite helpful, bro. I like 1 and 3 best, though I can appreciate 2 as 'compost.' Not too keen on 4, though some of those folks are great and way better than nothing.

    I find myself more in #3.

    #1: I see very interesting this of deconstruction, but maybe I'm a little orthodox for them. However, I think this kind of EC is the best at understanding the present times

    #2: They try to search for good things in the past, but I don't want to be in a very institutional churh. Anyway, they might have some good philosophical background, but being more orthodox than #1

    #3: I'm not an anabaptist, but I feel like one. This is the kind of church I'm looking for; comitted with social issues, with some of "christian anarchism", but at the same time they have enough orthodoxy.

    #4: The least popular for us, but I see as a way to make conservative christians turn a little to the "left".

    Well, those were my 2 cents by today.

    Goodbye from Colombia.
