	Clifford Putney - Muscular Christianity
		The notion of Muscular Christianity was an important feature of some key discourses around work with boys and men in the second half of the nineteenth century.

		Protestant leaders such as Harry Emerson Fosdick and Sherwood Eddy blamed muscular Christianity for encouraging militarism.

	Protestantism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Protestantism is a movement within Christianity, representing a split from within the Roman Catholic Church during the mid-to-late Renaissance in Europe —a period known as the Protestant Reformation.
		Nascent Protestant social ideals of liberty of conscience, and individual freedom, were formed through continuous confrontation with the authority of the Bishop of Rome, and the hierarchy of the Catholic priesthood.
		The Protestants characterized the Roman Catholic concept of meritorious works, of penance and indulgences, masses for the dead, the treasury of the merits of saints and martyrs, a ministering priesthood who hears confessions, and purgatory, as reliance upon other means for justification, in addition to faith in Christ and his work on the cross.

	Fundamentalist Christianity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This core set of beliefs was the "line in the sand" drawn by conservative Christians as they battled against the rise of rationalism, higher biblical criticism, and liberalism within Protestant denominations.
		The nature of the Christian fundamentalist movement, while originally a united effort within conservative evangelicalism, evolved during the early-to-mid 1900s to become more separatist in nature and more characteristically dispensational in its theology.
		Important early Christian fundamentalists included, Baptist pastor William Bell Riley, the founder and president of the World Christian Fundamentals Association, who was instrumental in calling lawyer and three-time Democratic presidential candidate William Jennings Bryan to act as that organization's counsel in the famous Scopes Trial.

	Theology Today - Vol 16, No. 4 - January 1960 - ARTICLE - Eastern Orthodoxy As a Theological Task
		Protestant Christianity, which more and more recognizes itself spiritually and historically as a part of the Christ-bearing community, still has to face the fundamental question of how the Christ-bearing community is to overcome spiritually the threat of history.
		This is due partly to the fact that many Protestants think that it is essential for the Protestant principle to maintain an antithesis between culture and Christianity, between the psychological and spiritual life of man, between the transcendent nature of the Word and the immanence of human existence.
		Eastern Christians have studied the traditions and theology of the West, to the point where the Roman Catholic historian, Fortesque, could write in his book on the Eastern Church, that Greek theologians speak like German higher critics, referring to the fact that most of them were educated in Protestant faculties of theology in the West.

	Islam in American Protestant Thought - Books & Culture
		As American Christians became increasingly conscious of the evangelistic challenge posed by non-Christian faiths, Muslims began to develop a reputation for being the hardest non-Christians to "reach." Herman Melville—certainly no evangelical—traveled to the Middle East and despairingly wrote that one "might as well attempt to convert bricks into brick-cakes as the Orientals into Christians.
		Paradoxically, American Christians came to believe both that it was very difficult to convert Muslims, and that Muslims were widely dissatisfied with Islam as a religion.
		Despite such evidence of American Protestants seeking genuine understanding of Islam without abandoning their own convictions, there is much reason for discouragement, as politically charged stereotypes have often substituted for substance, sympathy, and generosity.
