It's true. I know there are many really awesome Protestant churches out there. I know loads of fabulous Christians and ministers of all flavors. It's not Christianity per se that I have trouble with. It's the bland Christianized mainstream and the loud mouthed and dominating conservative Christian mindset that drives me to distraction.
I hesitate to use the label fundamentalist, because most people think of separatists, or the most conservative of conservatives. Most people that fall under the fundamentalist banner would never in a million years consider themselves fundamentalist. But I suppose I ought to call a spade a spade!
Also, I admit to being surprised that you are defending a church. ;)
