520 | |a The article examines the nature of orthodox' or fundamentalist' beliefs and practices in the Netherlands. It concentrates on Reformed Protestants. Fundamentalist' religion has been seen as a reaction against the global changes initiated in the modern' world. It is seen as reverting to traditional' beliefs creating isolated communities that discipline' individuals and seek to create certainty, as opposed to liberal' religious beliefs or secular' beliefs which stress individual choice, acknowledge more fluid' and less certain' boundaries, and encourage diversity and ecumenism. However, the fundamentalist' form of religion may not merely be traditional' and static; it can be as diverse, modern', and adaptable as liberalism' or secularism'. The thrust of the article is, therefore, that this type of religion, what I designate as orthodox' Reformed beliefs and practices, does provide, in the Netherlands, an arena for believers to experience community and some certainty'—it disciplines' individuals to embody truths'—but it also encourages individual activism by emphasising reflexivity—a rational thought process—encouraging individuals to choose their religious (and secular) path thoughtfully. There is a dialectical interaction between individual and community, choice' and discipline'. The article argues that orthodox' Reformed beliefs and practices may allow change in a controlled way. | ||
