[11]I anticipated Dr. Brown’s comments on Luther as an imperfect spiritual leader/pioneer in my review of Strange Fire in Pneuma Review (above).

[12]In my own studies of the opposers of revivals, the “Pharisees”, I noted how compulsively orderly and logical these persons were. See especially my study of the Rev. Charles Chauncy, the “Pharisee” of the First Great Awakening, in Quenching the Spirit, chapter 3, but I did not relate this characteristic to the left/right brain divide. Dr. Brown’s insight helps understand many contentious issues of church worship and disputes in theology.
