"Making dogmatic statements, such as “you are utterly delusional” or “you are mistaken” can deny someone’s experience."

Lol. OK. Fire will burn your hand to a crisp, if you keep it there long enough. That's probably another dogmatic statement for you :D Sigh.

"I do claim that Jesus (as opposed to Christianity) is unique, I also see truth in other faiths. I believe everyone is made in the image of the Creator, so we all possess the fingerprint of God, whether we call ourselves Christian, Muslim, atheist or whatever."

Yeah, like that article where you claim that, "God desires that all people be brought into a saving, healing relationship with Jesus and with each other." Are you even aware that you cannot have it both ways? You are essentially saying that those other faiths are all right, but eventually all should embrace the tenets of Christianity in the form concordant with your beliefs. I for one don’t care if you are Christian or whatever, but please, do us all a favor and at least follow what the man actually taught. Not what theologians pull out of their asses in their blessed ignorance.

"I am a Christian because I still believe the story of Jesus is the story I am willing to risk being wrong about."

Sure, no problem. Christianity and all those standard beliefs associated with its theology are special for you. You are obviously oblivious that that's the actual problem — if there's still something special for you, you by definition discriminate and judge. Where's you proclaimed all-encompassing love and benevolence? Or will you explain it away as being imperfect human, poor, but in grace showered and infinitely loved, sinner so it is ok to err? That's hypocrisy of the highest order. An excuse for not taking responsibility. And whether you call it "dogmatic" or "shaming" it changes nothing as it's merely calling a spade a spade.

"others with decades of investigation will come to a different conclusion."

Frankly, it's obvious that while we disagree, someone must have missed something, because there is only one truth. Enough said. I know that you believe that it's me who is mistaken, I know that it's you. Spot the difference. And before the idea of telling me that I cannot know even crosses your mind — I know what I can or cannot, and if I can know (and ergo know that I can know), you can too. Unless you are not human, which I’m sure is not the case.

Bye.
