Christian? Please Specify.
For my fellow Christians, could you please update your profiles and tags to more specifically identify your theological perspective, e.g. Reformed, Southern Baptist, Evangelical, Lutheran, etc.? That would help us interact better and understand each other's perspectives better.

As a High Priest of the Church of the Yogage, I can tell you that it does not matter. Yogage is the truth. Only through the Gospels of Sblob and Fistage can you see the true way.

I'm a True Christian ™. You know, the ones who got it right. As opposed to the ones who got it wrong.

I completely agree, its like trying to hit a moving target.

"Your argument is wrong because you don't understand the bible, Hell is not a real place, its metaphorical for the absence of God"
"Your argument is wrong because you don't understand the bible, Hell is a real place, full of fire and brimstone for your heathen soul!!!!!?!?"
"Your argument is wrong because you don't understand the bible, Hell refers to the state of your own soul"
"Your argument is wrong because you don't understand the bible, Hell means your soul is mortal until God grants it immortality"

Its difficult to have a rational argument against someone, it is unfair to expect a non-believer to understand the subtle differences between hundreds of different sects, and downright petty and arrogant to then berate them for not understanding what your sect believes.

It would be quite helpful.. but then, it seems all christians believe they are the true christian™

All of them are wrong. Hell used to be the Jacobian word for "Sheol" from the OT, which only means "the grave". It seems prior to Jesus, all those souls just went to oblivion. Hell as we know it wasn't invented until Jesus, meek and mild, came along and needed a place to torture people who wouldn't love him back.

Being a True Christian ™ has nothing to do with reason. A thinking mind is the Devil's playground.

But only True Christians ™ like me are right.

How? You'll all end up disagreeing with each other anyway.

Meh, I couldn't care less what people identify themselves as anymore, fuck religious beliefs across the board, they bore the snot out of me.

That would apply as well although I have seen any Jewish oriented posts, yet.
