LTRP Note: The following news story is posted for informational and research purposes only and in no way is an endorsement of the Christian Post, a regular media outlet for Rick Warren. Regarding Warren and Tony Blair coming together at the upcoming Saddleback Civil Forum, the two share much in common when it comes to plans for the world. One thing they share is their views on the problem with what they term fundamentalism or extremism. Blair states that “religion must be rescued from extremism and irrelevance and used as a force for good at a time of global turmoil.”1 Rick Warren “predicts that fundamentalism, of all varieties, will be ‘one of the big enemies of the 21st century.’ ‘Muslim fundamentalism, Christian fundamentalism, Jewish fundamentalism, secular fundamentalism – they’re all motivated by fear. Fear of each other.'”2 The question remains as to whether Bible-believing Christians will be included in their definitions of fundamentalism and extremism in the near days to come.
