"we're the real christians, they are not"

if you people had the the slightest understanding of basic logic you'd understand why this is all so funny :rofl:

i'm not the one drawing lines in the sand to create arbitrary standards of what it means to be a christian

No arbitrary standards in YOUR scripture. Pretty sure Mormons would still call themselves Christian... and who's to say they're wrong?


Pretty much.

Every Christian thinks that they have hit the spiritual jackpot. Their Christianity is the right one!

You're avoiding my questions because you can't answer them. What standard makes someone a Christian? What standard makes someone a Muslim? What standard makes someone a Socialist? What standard makes someone a pacifist?

Can you answer any of these questions? Are we to believe there is no standard for any of these labels?


Next to no standard... As long as you believe that's what you are then you're pretty much it. That's religion... it's all about your ridiculous beliefs having an impact on the real world. Sorry it doesn't always work out for you.

So Communists can believe in free market capitalism, private property, private education, child labor, etc?

Muslims can believe Jesus is the son of God? Christians can believe there is no God?

You are helping my argument. To believe that a "Christian" can have no standards for definition is to believe any other viewpoint can have no standards for definition.

Words don't have meanings, the next atheist slogan. :(

They are wrong by Biblical dotrine i'm no one but the Bible is pretty clear about the addition or subtraction of theology. I know you fancy yourself a Bible expert but go read some of Pauls letters he clearly addresses this issue.

Mormons think they are the true Christians. Proof? The Book of Mormon.

Protestants think they are the true Christians and Mormons aren't Christians. Proof? The Bible.

Who is right? Go!
