I don't consider myself pessimistic without warrant. I consider myself realistic based upon facts.

I didn't say there are NO good seminaries, did I? If I did, please provide the quote. Thanks.\

By your estimation that "There are no perfect seminaries or local Churches." are you suggesting:]
1. It doesn't matter which one you study at? OR There is no seminary one should study at?
2. The same applies to local churches as well. There was a 'vetted' OPC pastor who told a very dear friend of mine that it didn't matter where he chose to worship as long as he attended a local church e.g., the local United Methodist Church or the local Roman Catholic Church. On the other side, there is the old adage, "IF you should find a perfect church, don't join it because you'll ruin it." It is my clear understanding from Scripture that any local church one is considering MUST hold tenaciously and consistently to the fundamentals of the faith. And by that, I do not mean simply that God is Triune, Jesus is God, and you must believe in Jesus as your Savior to be saved. A Reformed Confessional church is the most basic starting point to be a church where one should consider. Next, does the church practice biblical worship; no contemporary worldly theatrics. Does the church teach and insist on holiness of life for all its members? And lastly, does the church administer biblical discipline? You may disagree, and that's fine I guess. But I must conform my thinking and living according to what I read in Scripture.
