Default I don't want to be a "real" Christian

With all the Mormon bashing that's been going on recently, I've decided I don't want to be a "real" Christian. I know who I am and I know my relationship with God. The example set by "real" Christians of late seems distant from the "real" Christ of the New Testament. I seem to remember some scripture about a beam in "your own eye." The "real" Christians would do well to remember that.

Anyway, I guess you "real" Christians win. I know I'm not a part of your club.

Bummer.

Any group that feels the need to put "real"(tm) in front of thier title isn't a group that is open and loving.
I'd much rather stick with plain old "christians" than any "real christians"(tm).

Just remember that those that bash, do so out of discomfort with thier own faith.

Is there such as thing as surreal christians?

How about ether-real christians?

I figure if you're going to adopt a designation that's pretty much come to be meaningless, might as well get creative.

Man! I wanna be a real Christian, so I can go around drawing distinctions between people, excluding others and telling them that thy're going to wind up in hell because they believe differently from me ... just like Jesus did!

Oh well ... I guess I'll have to settle for being one of those nasty, fake Christians, who insists on radical, inclusive love, even though it goes against convention...

That's too bad, because I'm sure Jesus would want me to be a real Christian, even if it's at the expense of someone else's spiritual well-being.
