What is the Emergent church movement saying that you approve of? Not questioning you, just curious.

Things like:

the lack of true, interdependent community in the body of Christ.

Our tendency to drop an offering in the plate and think that it absolves us of responsibility toward others.

The sycophantic devotion to man-made religious structures at the expense of real, discipling relatioships between people.

The tendency of some churches to focus on stupid uses of money, (like a new $88 mil church building here locally) instead of really doing something to help people, stuff like that.
