“And, I don’t have to make my “case” to any of them.”
Then why did you make it to me? Pressure from the cult, perhaps? Are you pledging?
Ah, your post was a hazing ritual for cult membership! Now I understand.
Sorry, but Christianity is an inclusive faith; that’s how I practice it. It’s not the “who’s in, who’s out” bastardization into which the cult has morphed it.

Getting in on the discussion late, but is this a political or religious discussion? If religious, what do you base your Christianity upon? The Bible? If you do, it is, of necessity, a “who’s in, who’s out” discussion. The founder of the religion you hold to put it this way:
“I am the way, the truth and the life, no man cometh unto the father but by me.” John 14:6
The Apostle Peter said this:
“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” Acts 4:12
It’s not about how you practice it. That’s egocentric. It is about how God wants you to practice it.
So, tell me. Upon what do you base your Christianity?
Two billion Christians, unlike you, don’t need to be told the obvious. Otherwise, it’s discussion in the forum, old boy. Failing that, the forum would be an empty wasteland. Are you genuinely that dense? Or, is an empty wasteland of a forum your design?
"Pressure from the cult, perhaps?”
Now you’re projecting.
”Ah, your post was a hazing ritual for cult membership!”
More projection. The Goebbels principle. But, I imagine you’re more of an Alinsky disciple. Same thing – borrowed from Goebbels.
”Sorry, but Christianity is an inclusive faith . . .”
As long as everyone agrees with you. That’s how you practice it. You’re reminiscent of the fellow who trumpets ‘diversity’ all the while demanding absolute conformity to his vision of diversity.
”It’s not the “who’s in, who’s out” bastardization into which the cult has morphed it.”
Yet, you seem to have definite ideas as to “who’s in, who’s out” which you mean to enforce on others. Look to the beam in your own eye, pilgrim. Clearly, you do understand “the Biblical Truth that the final judge is Christ.” But, it causes you to gag. It doesn’t allow you to promote an argument or to indulge in scandal mongering personal attacks. Nor does it allow you to play your little schismatic games. So you must pretend it’s not out there.
