I thought I answered that pretty conclusively from my POV orange, anyone who self identifies as such. A "valid expression" is a can of worms I'd hardly touch, there are some 41k recognized "valid expressions", one could reasonably assume that there are a great many more that simply fly under the radar. I'd ber willing to wager that there are as many "valid" expressions of christianity as there are believers. A 1 for 1 ratio of personal jesuses(jesusi, jesusees, jesu?) to believers.
Are you a christian, and is your expression of christianity "valid"? Would it surprise you if I could find some other christian who claimed that you were, in fact -not christian- (a claim that you, clearly, feel comfortable making about others of your ilk)....and that your expression of such was, in fact, -not valid-? All you're really hinting at here, and all that you -could be- hinting at here, is that some christians bullshit isn't like your christian bullshit, well.......no shit.
