Opinion of IndyTX

[Miles]

Certainly don't agree with everything he posts, but overall a FF. His snark can be hilarious.

[badgate]

I like him!

FF, but obviously that quote is horrible.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

FF

[Mr. Morden]

So he's not actually TexasIndy? 

They're not the same person?

is this breaking news? 

anyway, i find texasindy to be a ff too, all be it a little eccentric.

jamestroll on the other hand...ugh.

No jamestroll none of the time.  I know they have different names but yeah, I think it's texasindy anyway.

Where is the opening to be a liberal Christian? In a few dozen New England churches? Worldwide, the Christian experience is very similar to the Muslim one. Domination by a few very powerful men (in every conceivable way) for the benefit of a few very powerful men (in every conceivable way. So, in that sense, the post is really bad. But, he's not really wrong about Islam either.

Two gigantic denominations that have liberal beliefs. The PC(USA) allows for Gay and women pastors, has divested from Israel, supports women's reproductive rights and has trended towards many "social justice" causes in recent years. By no means is liberal Protestantism (in terms of politics, not theology), a BRTD-esque "hipster Christianity" phenomenon.

Example: I heard Kshama Sawant speak at a Presbyterian Church in Portland.

Thousands of "New Baptist" churches also are quite liberal IIRC. My old church had a lesbian wedding this Sunday.

It's amazing how WhitePeoplecentric you guys are.  A few quirky American denominations is hardly representative of global Christianity, which largely remains an oppressive and deeply psychologically damaging institution.

I hope the fact that you are a human windbag doesn't blow off your fedora.
