Many times, I post when I feel that the faith I choose to follow is being misrepresented.
On the one hand, there are non-Christians who indict the entire religion based on a narrow set of perceived beliefs.
On the other hand, there are Christians who follow doctrines I feel are incorrect.
There's a huge gamut of beliefs that fall under the Christian faith. A jewish rabbi commented to my class once that the variety of beliefs held by different Christian denominations can almost classify them as different faiths.
This isn't unique to Christianity. For example, there are a great many different schools of Buddhist thought, some of them wildly divergent.
My goal isn't to convert the heathen or condemn the heretics, but to simply add another point of view.
