Inspired by a conversation at Pro Ecclesia, I started thinking up some modern responses to ancient heresies. 'Tis a shame that heresy is fashionable nowadays. What answers would you get, if you asked folks about:
Arianism - "Those are the 'White Power' dudes, right?"
Pelagianism - "Isn't that a disease?"
Montanism - "Rock climbing addiction."
Donatism - "Giving stuff to charity."
Antinomianism - "Umm, they want to be anonymous?"
Modalism - "Insisting on ice cream with pie."
Adoptionism - "Adopting too many children."
Marcionism - "Believing in aliens."
Nestorianism - "Homes should only be made out of twigs?"
Anyone else?
New additions, and more modern heresies:
Monophysytism - "Say that again, I didn't catch that. What? I still don't get it."
Calvinism - "A quote from the comic strip 'Calvin and Hobbes'." [as opposed to Far Sidism]
