I want to link to this post, "Christians are. . . .", by [livejournal.com profile] lottelita, which perfectly sums up my thoughts on what Christianity is and is not:
"The Bible does not 'define' the beliefs and behaviors that constitute Christianity. First of all, texts are meaningless without interpretation in a personal and social context. Literary theory, people: It's not just for deconstructionists anymore.

[. . .]

As far as I'm concerned, if people say they're Christian, they're Christian."
Amen.
