It’s belief based on reason.

Meanwhile, a Christians belief is based on the power of God.

1 Corinthians 2:1-5 And I, when I came to you, brothers, did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom. For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling, and my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, so that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

We are not Islamacists.

Not yet, but your church is heading there at breakneck speed.

Stop this puerile nonsense of going into your bucket of disparate quotes, pulling excerpts from random to prove your point and going against a whole constellation of the greatest theologians including Protestants who have taught at leading Protestant colleges and universities and have converted to Catholicism. What you do is exactly what street preachers do: The Billy Grahams, Joel Osteens; Rev. Schullers, Rev. Sharpton, Rev. Jeremiah Wright; Rev. Jim Jones; Rev. David Koresh; Tammy Faye Baker; Bishop T.D. Jakes, and the rest of the self-reverend televangelist nuts.
