Christian Anti-Psychology Sentiment: Hints of an Historical Analogue

Abstract

This article explores the similarities between the current Christian anti-psychology movement and the creationist-evolutionary conflict earlier in this century. In this article, we argue that if indeed the movements are similar, we may be observing the beginnings of some important developments: a move by anti-psychology proponents for a centrist position and a new test for orthodoxy among conservative evangelicals–-anti-counseling and anti-psychology dogma.
