That’s like saying, “The county I happen to live in now is part of the State of California. I don’t live in California.”
And since I’ve gone to so many “schools”, I prefer to focus on what my degree is in, rather than what school I’m getting it at.
I’m a Christian that attends a Babdis church.
I have no trouble at all understanding that...
They are trying to convince each other that there are so many degrees of separation between the Protestant denominations that there can't possibly be any unity when they don't have a clue what they are talking about...
” I guess it’s like going to MIT engineering school and saying you are not really an MIT student, per-se. Rather, you are an engineering student first. What school you go to is not all that relevant as long as they have a good engineering program. So would not relate to MIT so much as relate to being an engineering student. What school I go to is relevant regarding the quality of the school, and that’s about it.”
Your analogy makes no sense. If you attend MIT, you are a student at MIT. If someone asks you where you attend college the answer is MIT. If someone asks you if you study engineering, and you do, the answer is yes. Those are two different questions.
If you agree with the teachings of the Baptists and attend a Baptist church, you’re a Baptist. You don’t agree with the Baptists but still attend their church, then you have other problems.
