What does it mean exactly when Wikipedia calls Annihilationism a legitimate minority opinion within modern conservative Protestantism?

score:5

Accepted answer

Wikipedia has a tendency to string adjectives together to form a description of something, usually after long and bitter debate on the talk pages.

What this sentence means is:

conservative Protestant theology: this isn't a well-defined movement, but refers to the theology of non-Catholics who mostly hold to traditional Christian views. The adjective "modern" simply means those people who hold these views in recent times.

minority opinion: most conservative Protestant believers don't hold to Annihilationism.

legitimate minority opinion: holding to Annihilationism won't get you thrown out of the "conservative Protestant" group (ill-defined as that is)
