No. I'm not questioning their whole belief system, only the attribution of this one belief to be part and parcel of the rest.

This is thin ice you're on.
To the limit that they're all individuals, yeah, obviously you're right. To the extent that they all gather together in a unified profession of faith, you're not right. It's the fact that they all claim to the same teachings by the same prophet that makes their religion the same.
Ugh. That's too tight a band. Obviously Christianity has plenty of varying sects, some of whom are not too cozy with each other.
I mean within the sects, they agree. To the extent that they all call themselves Christians they agree.
The "carbon copy" phrase doesn't help us in this conversation.

Yeah. This is what I'm saying.
