Rob says, "...if this manifesto in any way... aligns Christians against people of any sort" then he will reject it. But surely he isn't serious? Surely the point of such distinguishing names such as 'Evangelical' or 'Catholic' is just that, to distinguish them. If being Evangelical DOESN'T pit me against anyone, then it's not a name worth having (where "pit me against" means I reject what the other stands for, not that I don't long to see the other come to have a right relationship with Christ).
