“along with your condemnation of gays as being any more sinful than a straight man who has sex out of wedlock”

You are being dishonest. I’ve never suggested homosexuality is a super-sin. But I notice MOST people still reject adultery as admirable, while we are expected to praise and encourage homosexuality. The church is also under pressure to accept shacking up, but no Christian church can do so.

But “my interpretation” of Christianity may well be the correct one - IF IT IS ALIGNED WITH WHAT JESUS AND THE BIBLE TEACH. Liberal so-called Christians are quick to endorse government action over individual and even quicker to endorse any sexual perversion over the clear teaching of the Bible.

A distinguishing mark of liberal “Christianity” is to focus on SOCIAL sins rather than those we do as individuals, and to want us to “repent” of sins society may do rather than pay attention to the ones we actually are guilty of doing! It is rooted in a rejection of God the Creator and what He has revealed about Himself in the Bible. That is fine IF they would then admit they are not Christians. It is their insistence they can reject the Jesus of the Bible while being “true Christians” that I reject.

No matter what you say, if a person believes Jesus is the son of God, and died for their sins, they are Christian.

That's it.

They don't have to share your views on anything else. And there are millions of liberals out there who are Christian. They may think being gay isn't a choice, they may think abortion should be legal but they would never get one, they may think that government health care would be a good thing... none of that makes them "not Christian."

It doesn't matter what you say about it. It's not your call to make. If you believe in God, you must believe He is the one who decides who is Christian and who is not. He won't be checking with you. So park your ego.
