Because I have this "thing" for the truth. It gets me in trouble a lot, because most folks would rather live in their dream world than in the real one.
Very noble. Now climb down of your rightness and let's review what we were talking about.
1) I was discussing with someone else distributing Bibles in school and I was making a point about people who have to insist on being right so I wrote: However, that being said, after hearing lots and lots of people on this very site remind me again and again and again that Mormans are a cult and aren’t really Christian, I know that some people are so blinded by their own “rightness” that it wouldn’t stop with just passing out Bibles or Korans to interested students.
And boom, just like a Pavlovian dog you chime in...making sure that everyone knows what is right and wrong and you even personalize it to point out that I am wrong about Mormons not being Christians. I never made that judgment. You assumed. I was speaking about people who insist they are right.
2)And what did you tell me? You told me about Trinitarian God head and "Christian tenets" when I wasn't even discussing that. Remember I only used the issue as an example to demonstrate how some people are so convinced of the "rightness" they will go further than they intended. Nice demonstration. Thank you.
3) But if we must discuss it, personally I'd think that anyone who was a Roman Catholic (which I'm not) would say that all Protestant religions are cults and not true Christians. They were there first after all and drew up the first "Christian tenets". And then if I were a Jew (which I'm not) I would say that all Christian religions are cults and not true Jews. They were there first after all and drew up the first "Jewish tenets".
Basic "Christian tenet" as you put it has been changing and evolving for just about 2008 years or so. Deciding who are pure enough and true enough to warrant a title, in my opinion, is a poor use of bandwidth on a Politically Conservative website. Try the theology department.
