i know this won't really ever happen but let's pretend. let's pretend that moderate/liberal "red letter" Christians schismed from the Fundies, completely separated themselves from the embarassment of being associated (by the lable "Christian") with a bunch of hatefilled, bigoted fantatics ... what could the new Christianity be called? ... something distinct indicating the concept's unique newness.

Well, it certainly wouldn't be Christianity.

PAULITES is the best i could come up with he invented and started this religion this man is the true founder and gets little acknowledgment of the whole of it these are his ideas and methods of worship churches and the pagans learned about what he claim Christ did through and by him that is why he was beheaded he talked to much stuff now that's deep and stop putting god and Christ on the same level now that just sick really and this is why the Christians lose respect and the followers seem so mentally special!

Maybe you don't understand. Christianity is an embarrassment to the world. Our savior was spit on, mocked, scourged, and hung on a cross. Are we better than him? Christianity that is popular and socially acceptable is no Christianity at all. There's already plenty of that around anyway so you're not saying anything new here.

.. how about.. New Apologetic Church of the latter day Laodiceans?
sure the fundies have it way wrong. and the spineless "toleragencia" have it way wrong too.
There ain't no eternal agony in a burning hellfire and the Earth wasn't created 6,000 years ago. On the other hand there ain't no way a Christian can call evil good and good evil as the spineless middle is so comfortable doing.
Can't we all juss get along? Not really.

"led astray"
"misguided"
"lukewarm" (see Rev 3:16)
We actually have a name for them in my church, we call them the Chreaster-Christians, those who only go to church on Christmas and Easter.
They can also be called "cultural" Christians, those who think that Jesus had some really cool ideas but they're not sure about they whole "God" and "Miracles" part of it.
Oh, and by the way, it's not a new or a "unique" concept, people have been trying to pick through the "bones" of the Bible since Christianity began. See Rev 3:16 to see what happens to them.

we should be called nothing. if you ask Jesus what religion he was or Moses what religion he was or Adam and Eve what religion are you. what would they say? they would say i worship God. it's that simple. there is no such thing as religions. we all have the same God. so why don't we say that we are not religious we just worship God.
