Here's a link to Wikipedia's 35 pages describing Christian denominations. Hundred listed, maybe more. When dissected down to similar levels as you do, which is well beyond superficial groupings,...

Certainly a fair point. Somewhere in the translation, "Thou shall not murder" got changed to "Thou shall not kill". Or so we are told. When it's convenient. OR not.

Not only are the...

That's why I suggested early on in this thread it was mis-titled, as Boxcar's idea of the one...

In one post you state we cannot understand the mystery of the incarnation of Christ. Then here, you imply yes, we can understand it. Ummm, which is now?

The problem I see is this - whenever...

Informed opinion? I think that's open for debate. In my OPINION, the only significant aspect to the Bible that sets it apart is its attempt to cover more of the bases in laying down a rigid dogma. ...

This is another aspect to Christianity which doesn't make any sense to me. Why all the theatrics about crucifixion, death and resurrection? Especially if it's all truly predestined? Why do I get...

Well, thanks for sharing that opinion. It would be nice if, for a change that reflects a bit of maturity, that you communicated that belief as an opinion, and not fact. You know, admit there's a...

And this is relevant, how?

Please, spare us the martyr complex. Your posts reflect poorly enough on Christianity as it is, without you claiming hollow victory.

When it comes to faith, it seems it's rather shallow to consider one's "credibility". Since it's a personal belief, why should you care what others think?

From your point of view, it's clear why you think Christianity (and especially your flavor) is so unique. But since you're clearly uneducated in other faiths, it's all relative. For those of us who...
