LOL, you’re much more of Universalist and Liberal (in the Christian context) than you have the courage to admit publicly. I’m much more in that Camp these days and I can amen your CC buddy’s good works and Good Samaritanism and the good works of Atheists, Catholics, Mormons, 100th Degree Masons, though I don’t trust Muslims.
Again, the underlying point to me was the Conservative/Fundamentalist vs. Universalist/Liberal attitude and I was trying to show you that reality in your article and subsequent comments, but you take it, primarily, as a shot at CC. No. It was primarily showing you the Universalism and Liberalism in your article and example in your comments affirming good works no matter who it is doing them.
In my search for Truth I look to actions as expressions of true doctrine/theology. You’re much more Liberal than you think (as evidenced by the amens from Muff and brian). I think that’s good and affirms some of my personal suspicions about what is true and what isn’t. That was the point, your handling of this particular issue is teaching (though it contradicts some of your hard-line Fundamentalist/Conservative expressions, which you don’t really believe, not in practice, which is a good thing IMO).
