I'm definitely not Christian, but I've got little Christian chunks still embedded in my brain. Like, whenever I hear 'Christians' talk about their woman pastor, or being queer, or having premarital sex, those little chunks just don't believe they're actually Christian.

there's nothing quite as endearing as people simultaneously claiming their religion is at its core a "deeply personal relationship with the divine" but that the relationships others have with the divine are wrong because that personal nature begins and ends with their experiences

Sure, though most protestants believe that the Church lost the way pretty early on (Catholicism) and that Martin Luther etc. restored a lot of the older 'correct' doctrines. Most protestants wouldn't consider the 11th century Church to have any legitimate claim.

*Churches this was the great schism and each half considered itself to be the one true church; further splintering since the "reformation" period and a tendency to see "others" as not 'real/ true' Christians, supports the stance that no Christians are actually Christian.
