Except that many spirit filled evangelicals aren't easy believers, and doctrinaire legalism isn't hard truth. Other than that, is your point appropos of anything?

Possibly you are coming away with a different opinion than mine? That does not make my point not "appropos" of anything.

You look at it as legalism, someone else looks at it as rigidity, I look at as the narrow road.

I wasn't talking about the candles and incense of the liturgy, I was talking about the "so-called" rigidity about sexual morality (homosexuality, contraception, abortion), morality and general, and things like fasting, attending Church every Sunday, etc.

Christianity is more fun when you dumb it down to having the occasional bible study meeting.

I was addressing your attempt at caricature, which fell flat. Many (most, in my experience) evangelicals are NOT "easy believers," and DO oppose homosexuality, contraception (at least the abortefacient variety, if not all), abortion, promiscuity and immorality. They also believe in fasting, prayer and Church attendance. What they may not necessarily believe in is Church-mandated fasting periods, for example. That doesn't make it "Christianity-lite," as some have attempted, incorrectly, to aver (some notable exceptions granted).
