I would say there are only 3-4 divisions along major doctrinal differences in a narrow band of topics.Then you would be wrong... and we've have had this discussion before. Fall and hit your head on a bible since then? Or is it more an issue of your christian faith being determined by whatever piece of christer merch you've most recently read? The latter, I suppose....has precedent........
Quote:Second, you assume that people can interpret the Bible any way they want and go on your merry way. That is simply not the case. Systematic theology is the study of putting all the doctrines together into cohesive whole. There are only a couple of versions that will stay together (none of which have earth shattering differences). If you personally ignore some doctrine because you disagree, it most likely will affect many other things and your own personal theology is shot full of holes.Not that this has ever so much as slowed down any given believer with any number of disparate systematic theologies, such as yourself. It's almost as if you guys can't even agree on the proper system, let alone points of doctrinal authority.
What's the point of bullshitting people about something that, itself, gets shot full of holes as soon a someone googles the fucking term? What's the point of bullshitting yourself?
