The point about religious experience and the thin line some protestants walk is interesting. The stereotype Mormons used to have of Protestants in the 19th century was much more the “unenchanted” more Hegelian style. Charles Dickens critique of Mormons, “angels in an age of railways” got brandied about quite a bit when I was young. But of course Dickens is hardly representative of American Protestantism.
