You explained things well other than when you said there can be no Christian Spiritualists. Folk can call follow any persuasion they choose and call themselves anything they like.

We can't change that by saying there's no such thing.

Mac, I may be unusual, but I don't think I'm unique. I believe that Jesus Christ died for my sins, or died to do some wonderful think that benefitted me and everyone else.

I also believe that there's a place in the next world for me and everyone else, that's based not on anything Jesus did, nor on whether we "accept" him in any way, but is based purely on our own individual efforts.

I believed both these things before I ever heard of Spiritualism.

I accept that my two beliefs may well be illogical, but I also believe that we can never reduce religious faith or belief into strict logic.

So yes, I believe that there is such a thing as Christian Spiritualism.
