A Pebble in my Shoe

It rubs me the wrong way when people can't seem to see the differences between all the myriad varities of Christian, and just lump all Christians together as "religious nut-jobs who are anti-everything."

Got to say I agree. If someone tells me they're a "Christian," I have a very visceral reaction. If someone tells me they're Catholic or Anglican or heck... even Baptist, I don't.

The people who use the WORD "Christian" on a regular basis are just SO often the people who frigging terrify me.

That's true. Somebody who just calls themself Christian, without identifing with a specific denomination, does seem to run a greater chance of being a nut of some sort.

It also holds true for churches. Non-denominational churches seem to be much more conservative than affiliated ones.
