Your post loses its credibility because it is denominationally biased.

I'd say this is the big one. Which denominations do not make this claim?

How so? We nonxians did not create the denominations, the xians did. With thousands of denominations, what are the common items that are agreed upon?

Does Baptist Board lose credibility because they make denominationally based decisions?? per this thread

Quote:

Unless they changed their rules recently, they only allow Baptists to register. My methodist wife was rejected.

Quote:

I applied to be a member on Baptist Board last year. I stated I was Catholic and the form asked for favorite scripture, so I posted a Latin Prayer.

They denied my application on the grounds that "they were only accepting Born Again Christians at this time".

Non-Baptist Christians who are permitted to join may only post on certain forums

Hmm, interresting. I tend to start my membership in forums like this with either a rant like the one I used here, or my story of the two villages who never talked to each other... I chose the rant because it tends to gain a bigger audience - or at least more replies. I think I'll post the story somewhere too.

And to those who reserved places for me in Hell - wether or not you did it with a nice smile or an evil-but-very-much-holier-than-thou one: once I get there, i won't run out of seats. Spammers are so much fun... I'm going to all twelve Hells at once! (isn't there just seven of them?)

On the contrary, it is credible.

Quote:

- that actions don't get you into heaven, only faith in Jesus, so that a pedophile mass murderer who *believes* gets to go to heaven

Isn't this a bit misleading? I thought it was a multi-step process. I thought there was some law of action? Did they call it do unto others as you would have others do unto you or some such like if my memory fails me.

Do things become credible by stretching it somewhat?
