Catfish comes to mind, but I won't put words in his mouth...

I see it the same way as defining atheist as simply "disbelief in any god or gods." Similarly, the idea of being a Christian requires, by definition, accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Clearly there are deep doctrinal differences between say Mormons, on the one hand, and Roman Catholics on the other. At the same time, I am not convinced that the sincerely held religious convictions between believers of goodwill are all that different on an intuitive and emotional level. And while it may take some digging, the intellectual foundations have more in common that we might suppose.
