I suggest you tee something up on another thread and I will join you there if I feel what you claim is relevant to me. Having said that, you are, of course, free to proselytize on this thread. Don't think that I am asking you to quit.
What have you proved by pointing this out [that the axioms or beliefs I mentioned form a theology]? [...] I prefer just that you grasp that Jesus Christ is a living Person.
That aside, as I have said to you before ~ twice now? Three times? ~ I am not seeking to "prove" something. I am simply interested in whether your fellow Christians [here at least] agree that re-defining "religion", so that it doesn't mean what it actually means, 'works well' in some way or whether it legitimately or coherently applies the stress you mentioned two posts ago "that Jesus Christ is a living Person".
Surely, "Jesus Christ is a living Person" is a tenet of the Christian religion that is not promoted or strengthened in any way by asserting "Christianity is not a religion"?
