A late rejection, at that, as christianity has been infiltrated by and incorporated even more novel pagan and secular ideas than it had at it's conception.
It's the bridge between what christianity is or was, to what that community of faith will become....lauded by us, perhaps..but feared by their holymen. A post christian christianity.
Now you're just arguing semantics. You'll be trotting out some true Scotsmen for us next.
....? I think they're all true scotsmen - but, ofc, the scotsmen called themselves something else at some point. What we see now is a christianity in flux. Its not just sociologists and poll takers who've noticed - christian leaders are pulling the fire alarm about it.
I'm not defining christianity, to say that some are and some aren't christian - christianity is redefining itself as to what the statement even means. Emjays kinder christianity is representative of that. At it's core, though, it's still revisionism.... as the people who peddle it today falsely claim that this is what it always was. Christ, in the red letters, actually touched this topic himself..or so the story goes...and the story doesn't paint his alleged beliefs or mission in such a kind light.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
