To be honest Christianity is such a catch all bag of beliefs that you pretty much have to ask individually what people believe.

Yes, absolutely!

It's a big baggy term of family resemblance (in Wittgenstein's sense), under which individual Christians may have almost nothing in common.

I find myself in the odd position of defending them, saying over and over -- no, not all of them believe that, that is not an intrinsic part...
