I do find it interesting that you assume someone thinks a person is a Baptist if honesty is unexpected. Does Mack know you feel this way?
What exactly did you say that caused Salvation to praise your "honesty" for? Let's see:
**Now, an attendee at you're average "Baptist" church will likely hear appreciably more preaching about Scripture, but not "more Scripture". Too often it's cherry-picked verses in three or four places to support a point.**
Maybe you should ask Salvation what she found so "honest" about your "Baptist bashing". (turnabout.)

Right back at you.

What I was praising was the honesty about Catholics possibly reading more Scripture on any given Sunday while other denominations might read one readings and preach on that if it fits the individual pastor's (preacher's) agenda for that Sunday. Whereas in the Catholic Church the readings are pre-determined on a three year rotating cycle.
Perhaps I interpreted the statement wrongly, and perhaps it can be further clarified by IMRight.
