The similar phrase 'Worldly Christianity' is one used by Bonhoeffer. It's J Gresham Machen that I want to line up most closely with. See his Christianity and culture here. Having done commentaries on Proverbs (Heavenly Wisdom) and Song of Songs (Heavenly Love), a matching title for Ecclesiastes would be Heavenly Worldliness. For my stance on worldliness, see 3 posts here.

No Superman

I came across Batman first as a kid and always preferred him to Superman. The idea of not having super powers and yet being a super hero appealed. I liked the tongue in cheek American TV series too. I don't like the way they've developed Batman in more recent years.
