LOL! It looks like everyone is emerging! I think everyone can find at least a couple words from both categories! :D
ReplyDeleteI think all Christians would use 'Jesus' and 'spiritual' in a positive way, while all would use 'judgmental' in a negative sense (and if your Charismatic or Pentecostal, then 'rational' and 'Enlightenment' definitely make your negative list!)
I am more "emerging" than I thought. I might... just might be a liberal Christian.

ReplyDeleteFunny choices!
