If you kill little babies in the womb, you aren't a practicing Christian.

I just can't get it though to you that if you could have discussed ONLY its merits, and left out all the zeros and name calling and judgments, this thread would have likely gone much differently for you.

But I do realize that is impossible, because literally you do not even realize you're doing it!

By your own definition, neither are you.

She's actually a Christian, if I recall.

I was born Jewish (albeit within a secular family), but I'm curious about other religions as well.

The Christian church where I felt most spiritually connected was a church that emphasised that G-d cherishes love no matter what gender(s) the love is between. They also asked people to please not leave their brains at the door, and to remember that the Bible is meant to be intelligently interpreted and adapted to the present circumstances (as opposed to being taken literally).

Songs from other religions were sung in order to celebrate the positive common ground they all shared.

Would such a church qualify for your plan? (Though this question is purely hypothetical given that this church was in my other home country where we have universal healthcare, and hence no need for these tin roof shack "healthcare plans".)

Christian Healthcare Ministry cost-sharing 'insurance' has limited coverage, church attendance required

Sounds like a religiously affiliated ponzi scheme

It wouldn't have gone smoother, because there are just so many leftists who hate Christianity and Christians. It's very much like people who say "If Trump would only not tweet" or "If only it were somebody other than Trump". Nonsense. The far left would be out to destroy ANY Republican president. Look what they did to George W. Bush every day of his administration.

I don't define Christianity. I am using the word of God. I'm not judging you. There's nothing wrong with not being Christian. God bless.

You aren't either if you think you can judge someone for the death penalty. Nor if you're a racist or xenophobe

I said in an earlier post that I am a Christian. Did you miss it?
