“His position is the traditional institutional Christian”
And your data comes from....???
No, traditional followers of Christ believe and love with all their heart, soul, strength and mind.
And they do not doubt or deviate from this. They have no desire to deviate or take away from this.
The term ‘institutional’ is misplaced, unecessary and has nothing to do with a follower of Christ.
My data is my Catholic education. Which has been in the same continuous tradition going back 2000 years - i.e., this is an institution, a community of belief, the Church.
Christianity was founded as a community.
I understand what Mr. Bush said perfectly well, in the argument between that tradition and the “literalist” arguments of the last few centuries and today.
