You call 'cherry pick' Evie when you don't understand what would constitute such. As Arcanus has detailed, Christianity is uniform in it's stated beliefs.

Arcanus Wrote:It's not about whether or not you understand that definition; it's about whether the definition or its source is recognized in Christian orthodoxy as authoritative. The sacred Scriptures are authoritative, for example, as are the apostolic creeds (e.g., 1 Cor. 8:6) and specific ecumenical creeds (e.g., the Athanasian Creed). Your say-so, or the dictionary? Not so much. You should review the second chapter of Schaff's Creeds of Christendom, which itself has been around for nearly 200 years; i.e., you missed goal posts that have actually never moved.
