Hi Brady,

I should think we'd consider it well intentioned but heterodox and not acceptable.

Put briefly, it attempts to cater to and compromise with the world rather than:

• confronting the world
• transcending it, and
• transforming it.

The Holy See has not, to my knowledge, commented on the movement.

We would probably largely agree with the Evangelical criticisms of it.
