I realize we're getting off topic, but your comment really confused me. Christianity is inclusive




There are far too many posters who do not portray their faith as inclusive but rather exclusive.




Bingo.
And I would say that far too many people who don't portray their faith as inclusive, but rather exclusive.




What exactly do you guys mean by inclusive vs. exclusive? Christianity is both. Pardon the over-simplification, but it's such that anyone can join, but that doesn't mean anyone can count them selves a Christian. In the scriptures there are many stories of people coming to Jesus and asking if they can follow Him and he says yes to all of them as long as they do "this or that depnding on the story" So while Jesus is willing to include anyone who wants to he excludes anyone unwiling to do or believe certain things.
