    That’s a pretty broad brushing of a diverse religious group. It sounds like you’re clumping in Catholics with everyone else. Catholics are all about casting people out of the church for not being catholic enough and not so much for sexual predators. But there’s so many small churches based on Christianity, so many different practices…. You just lumped them all together with your grievances with the Catholic Church. It gives intolerance, kind of hypocritical.

      That’s a ridiculous assertion. I’m sure the follow up sentence ought completely clear up what you must mean here

      It sounds like you’re clumping in Catholics with everyone else.

      What in the world???

      Are you really taking my very obvious example of a person no one would argue is not Christian, to imply that every Christian must somehow be Catholic?

      I cant even begin to see how you misinterpreted my comment in that way.

      You just lumped them all together with your grievances with the Catholic Church. It gives intolerance, kind of hypocritical.

      I did no such thing, and I refuse to believe that you think I did, given that this example couldn’t be any clearer.

      Its especially ridiculous given my example is used as a means to establish that the definition of Christian is indeed far wider not narrower than the poster I responded to.

      This is precisely the opposite of your claim of me narrowing the definition of Christianity with that example. It’s uttterly backwards.
