One accepts the "spirit" (no capital) and the

"wording"). This type of<br>
heresy is normally contained inside the movement (indeed in the
exterior<br>
part of it, not very close to the center), but doesn't try to fight
against<br>
the orthodoxy or the leadership, namely to create a new orthodoxy with
a<br>
new "obedience". It discusses the "principles" or
methods but accepts the<br>
"foundations" of the movement or community.<br><br>
A very different one can be called "factionist", as it
criticizes the<br>
"foundations", in order to create a "different
movement", based partially<br>
on the converts of the first one. Even if this one also discusses
the<br>
principles or methods, in fact what is the central concern is
"power" and<br>
the creation of a new orthodoxy, normally more "strict" (or
closed) then<br>
the first orthodoxy and normally giving more privileges to the first
(re)<br>
converteds.<br><br>
In every case that one wants to analyze heresies one has to question
what<br>
are the underlying values, ethical principles and potential consequences
of<br>
the heresy in relation with the movement.</blockquote><br><br>
You do the analysis Artur -- but I say Let's have lots of both.<br>

forget about the first one. <br><br>
