This will sound something but I share it as an exhortation to inform you vs to slam you.

WHEN you appear to be insisting on defining, populating other Christians' dictionaries according to your sensibilities, criteria, boundaries--

you come across as

--prissy
--Pharisaical
--starchy
--narrow
--unreasonably and unnecessarily rigid
--stubborn
--lifeless
--dead works oriented
--petty

And at that point--it does not matter what your intentions; your criteria etc. are.

The perception of the above is in the eye of the beholder.

However, it does have implications for trying to share your Jesus--usually--the average pagan wants nothing to do with the Jesus offered by someone who comes across in those ways.

As Qx has said to me so many times:

God is Holy--
He's not prissy

His Biblical mentions of poop demonstrate that clearly enough.

I notice you never did reply to my query about DOING UNTO OTHERS on these threads.

I have shared my actual, real life experiences. If they fail to meet your standards, there’s nothing to be done. I can’t change my experiences, nor can I lie about them.
