Excellent tagline.

One thing that drove me out of the Protestant milieu was the unceasing arrogance of thinking that everyone who didn’t espouse their particular interpretation of the Faith - whatever the denomination - must be going straight to hell. Sorry, but God is the judge of our souls, not other humans. HUMILITY OF FAITH seems to be missing here.

God didn’t create these Christian divisions...WE did. On Judgement Day I highly doubt He’s going to say all the Catholics go over here, all the Baptists go over here, etc, etc. EACH person will be judged individually by the content of their hearts and their personal fidelity to the Faith given to them.

I can only shake my head at all of this, and think that the Muslims must be just laughing at us, knowing we’re too preoccupied to watch them overrun the West.

I'm sorry, not trying to be a smart-alek, but what does that part in Bold mean?
Does that come out of the Bible, or is it something your believe that "the God of your understanding" might say?
