Doctrine is pretty big in the Baptist orbit.
My 'BLASPHEMY' warning indicator was sounding a shrill alert.

So, when a person says "Don't worry about all these man-made doctrines. Worry about Christ's doctrine.", it's useless. He just told one person to love everyone no matter what and the other person to not let gay people get married.I totally get what you were trying to say. That is why I backed out of the direction you were going and re-established some common ground that all Christians would agree on. First the defination of doctrine, and second where to find the doctrine of Christ. Therefore If said doctrine can be found in the gospel then it is indeed a doctrine of Christ. Now because we are all different with different concerns we will focus on different parts of Christ's doctrine. This goes back to what Paul said in corthinians, in that we are all different members of the same body, as such we have a different appearance and different function, even so we are no less apart of the body of Christ. In short you are looking for a jumpsuit theology. One all encompassing uniform that covers everything. When Christianity is more like individually made articles of clothing. Tailored to form fit indivisual body parts. Just because you examine a 'glove' from one Christian and a hat or a sock from another does not make those articals any less tailored for the body of Christ. 
So Drich, I'm new here and don't know you. You say you're a Christian but what flavour?

He's the "I pray you get cancer" kind.
I wish I was joking.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

The cafeteria christianity is strong in this one. I'm not inclined to take too much seriously till he handles deadly serpents and drinks molten boron.
