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.

The irony of her tweet is that I was wondering if the Christianity she grew up with would have been considered Christianity at any point in time.

Ooh, gotcha. I know about Calvinism but I legitimately was unaware what sect you grew up with.
