Beyond the Catholic exclusionary paradigm is a larger one which is the Christian one. Christians claim that if you don't believe in Christ, you can't get to heaven. Well that eliminates two thirds of the world's population!
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Christians are not limited to any church.
There is much, of course, in the exclusive claims of Christianity which make it hostile to other faiths.
Christianity means a lot more than church membership.
The Christian Coalition is still about Christianity, even if it's an idea of Christianity that many Christians might not go along with.
Christianity is a religion of continuity and discontinuity as well. It's about what stays the same and what changes in the twinkling of an eye. Both are necessary truths, but sometimes it's important to accentuate the discontinuity, the sudden leap, the way you go up a tree, Zacchaeus, and come down a saint.
Christianity is usually called a religion. As a religion it has had a wider geographic spread and is more deeply rooted among more peoples than any other religion in the history of mankind.
Christianity made us think there's one heaven.
If you read history you will find that the Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next. It is since Christians have largely ceased to think of the other world that they have become so ineffective in this.
There's nobody who doesn't have problems with the church, because there's sin in the church. But there's no other place to be a Christian except the church.
Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important.
