| | PRIMITIVISM IN THE AMERICAN HOLINESS TRADITION |
 | | Large numbers of converts, especially in the more rural mid-western United States, became restless under what they judged to be the heavy-handed Methodist control of the movement. | | | Whoever sought "God’s opinion" concerning the "Ideal Pentecostal Church" would find it "plainly enunciated" in the second chapter of the Acts of the Apostles. | | | Keefer contends that the failure of Wesley’s experiment in Anglican (Non-Juror’s) ecclesiastical primitivism that he experienced in his ministry in Georgia, followed by his evangelical experience at Aldersgate in 1738, did not end his primitivism, as some have maintained. |

| | This stood in marked contrast to European codes of behavior, which restricted sexual activity, and economic forces which resulted in later and later marriages. | | | Primitivism was adopted because many of the motifs and ideas associated in the minds of early 20th century Europeans - percussiveness, sexuality, the revelation of repressed urges - were associated with tribal culture, and pre-Christian religious practices, including Human sacrifice. | | | Many features of primitivism's origin can be traced to the sense of superiority that Europeans felt towards those that they had only recently conquered, and at the same time the insecurities prevalent about their own culture, and its potential to fall into a "degenete" state. |
