And you consider this a bad thing? That the primary reasons for divisions and schisms are not emphasized but rather the churches try to be all encompassing and more open? I guess that is part of the whole protestant populism. What doctrines do you specifically mean and why is neo-orthodoxy a bad thing? Schisms and divisions are one reason why people don't accept religion. Is God really so petty that he is going to accept the Church on one side of the street while the Church on the other side is going to burn in hellfire?
