No, there isn’t [a competing fray of contradictions].

Sigh.

Baptism. Eucharist. Marriage. Leadership. Worship. Structure (if any) of the Church. What is "Grace"? Who is "Saved"? How do we know? What is the relationship (if any) between "Faith" and "Works"? What is Heaven? Hell? Who shall be judged, and on what basis?

Yeah, most of us can recite the Apostles' Creed, or the Nicene Creed, and all mean pretty much the same thing by it.

Bully for us.

We still find all too much to disagree about, and generate all too much heat (and all too little light) doing it.

Again, my fight is NOT with other members of the Body of Christ (and I do consider Catholics to be Christians).

My fight is with the pseudo-Christian groups claiming to be Christians, specifically the one I used to be a member of.

Most of what you listed I do not consider ‘salvific’ (make or break) doctrines, nor do most Christians I know.
