In other words, they’d say that they’re just trying to separate actual Christianity from purely cultural or political beliefs. In response, I’ve seen these evangelicals insist that “deconstruction” is just what the Reformers did. Based on how progressive Christians use this term, a lot of people are very alarmed when they see prominent evangelicals talk about “deconstructing” their faith.
