........IS a Christian?
You'd think people would be more intelligent than that; than to be so gulible.
I guess they figure if it's negative, it supports their position, so they accept it............That's prettty hypocritical if you ask me.....but hey, that's the "world".

"I understand full well that most people who call themselves Christian are following Paul's teachings far more than Jesus"
WOW. The world IS confused.

Some of these people don't understand what you are talking about.
Even Paul tells believers to test every Spirit.
It's just their excuse to put down all Christians, because of the actions of a few so-called Christians.

It's a bit hard to keep track of everyone here, and try to ascertain from their Q&A whether they fit some criteria of Christianity. Especially when there are different standards going about. Which one are we to use? Do you want to set up a list somewhere so we can check it?
I understand full well that most people who call themselves Christian are following Paul's teachings far more than Jesus. But they still identify as Christian. What would you have us do? Tell them they're not?

You mean I get to decide who is and is not "a Christian"?
This is going to be fun.

"paul, Only a fool would "absolutely believe something without proof. Unless of course, you're a hypocrite."
Is there some other "Paul" here? Your comments have nothing whatsoever to do with mine.

It's not up to "them" to label themselves -- it's up to you to label yourself. Something like "Real Christian" as opposed to just Christian. Then again it's been suggested that when I talk about fake Christians, I should use a lower case C instead of the upper case C. Being a "non-believer" I have no idea when to use upper case or lower case. Puleeeze -- I beg of you. Come up with a name for real Christians that you can all agree with. From my experience with Christianity, I'd recommend "Paulists."

They are identifying who is in the special club.
