Thanks for clarifying your position. I misread it as a more general argument against Christianity - namely that it is indiscernible what it means to be a follower of Christ (who knows what he actually said after all)?

I thought about replying to some of the other posts but didn't. I think Romans 2:1-3 is the rebuttal to Yallow's post.

Just curious - what is your theological persuasion (atheist? agnostic? something else). Former atheist myself.
