      The claims of 'one true Christianity' is rarely argued except in regions like North Ireland.

      But even there, around border, there is often a conscious effort not to discuss religion.

      I am sorry but that narrative to me is: an assumption made in ignorance, strengthened by confirmation bias, then not updated with new info.

      This is ignorance, yes. Most people are more familiar with Christianity & equipped to point out cherry-picking & sanitising there.

          Just to clarify I ended the discussion because I thought it would turn into a tedious parsing of Ron's tweets. No disrespect intended.
