167. You make a common mistake
You have assumed that the loud, obnoxious right wing Xtians speak for Christianity.

They do not. In fact, their beliefs are opposed to the teachings of Jesus.

None of my liberal minister friends or my father who is a Presbyterian minister would support anything on that list of 14 items.

The liberal Christians can not let the right wing speak for them, but we can not allow the right wing to speak for them either.

No theologian at, say, Columbia theological seminary would endorse your list based on Christian theology.

All preacher teachers at, say, the unaccredited Briarwood seminary in Birmingham Alabama would endorse the list. The difference? Theological training.
