Interesting analogy Dave. A box of fireworks!
Well, of course it's important, regarding your statements on the fruits of faith, you know Buddhists may take exception.
Or, adherents to other beliefs.
I don't think it is the fruits of Christianity which equate to it's dogma, or the essential tenets of the faith. Which is what I was asking about.
How would one identify the genuine article from errancy, or heresy?
