""Mike, no I didn't call my Pagan friend "a Christian", I called her "christian": meaning charitable, kind, forgiving. It's becoming a term less well used today. And I think unfortunately so.""

I agree with that Crow Sister, and may I say that I don't find any difficulty in interpreting your posts.

In relation to the above quote, I would state that I consider it more important, more fulfilling, and (in others) more admirable to be christian than to be A Christian.

As I have said above, I regard "christian" as an adjctive rather than a name.

If ever I have had problems with anything to do with religion, they have been with A Christian, never with christianity, or with A Muslim, never with Islam, etc. etc.
