Talk:Liberal Christianity

(Difference between revisions)

This page is much to kind to liberals. -- ChrisWa I suggest the addition of a section on criticisms or controversy.

No, because then people like myself will whine. -_- Fuzzy 18:47, 26 February 2008 (EST)

I finally understand conservapedia: it's a satire of what passes for conservative thought in the more extreme reaches of the 'net. That aschlafly is an absolute master of irony. This article started out as a sober rendition of liberal Christianity -- boring, boring, boring -- until aschlafly put his magic touch to it. Now it's hilariously funny, as long as I remember that this whole site is a parody of an actual encyclopedia! The joke's on me: it just took me too long to fully appreciate the subtle irony that permeates this site. And aschlafly -- if you're following this; if you're not really a committee of professional comedians -- my hat's off to you, sir! Keep up the wickedly satirical work; and you can count on me to keep the joke quiet, so that other pilgrims can experience the belly laugh I'm enjoying right now. Mrb

Mrb, I suggest you take your liberal bias elsewhere. -- ChrisWa

Could we list these "most popular denominations" for the benefit of those readers who don't know the popularity of various denominations? HelpJazz 19:31, 26 February 2008 (EST)

Yes indeed, that is needed here. Examples are always good - perhaps the article could also list which Churches allow what - both the (Protestant/Anglican) Church of England and Church of Ireland permit women clergy, for example, and are much less strict on matters of dogma. And that's hardly a 'small' population - certainly not the former, at any rate. And it's worth remembering that different branches and countries within a Church can have radically different slants - another example being the far-left wing activist nature of the Catholic Church in 70's and 80's Salvador, Nicaragua and Northern Ireland, and today in many other countries. While remaining 'conservative' on liturgical and family matters, Churches have often strayed politically. Misterlinx 19:56, 26 February 2008 (EST)

Are faiths opposed to liberal positions? Or are they not acting the way that they are because they believe they are following their god's teachings? Is it not the case for the truly faithful that their beliefs transcend mere politics? Or do gods actually have politics? Aboganza 19:34, 26 February 2008 (EST)

There's also a small possibility that I misunderstood the meaning of the first sentence and rewrote it to mean something else. HelpJazz 19:57, 26 February 2008 (EST)

I thought it was agreed you would stop slagging off peoples religion. How would you like it if I made an article on extreme Christianiy and intolerance or hatred? You would throw your teddy in the corner.--Patmac 09:11, 26 May 2013 (EDT)
