As Ham said, with all the contradictions, it wouldn't be possible anyway.
I was just pointing out how anyone claiming to believe anything about the mythology, since the only source of it is those various translations, is inevitably a hypocrite. Which is what I've been saying from the beginning. So it just makes horsefeathers of anyone saying they're a Xtian when no one has a clear definition of it. If that's not a recipe for insanity, I'd like to see what is.
Christianity is belief in Jesus and His teachings.
Apart from that, there can be various interpretations of bible passages and denominations.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
