It would appear that I must be a liberal Christian by this definition -although I take my usually fairly progressive social views from a fairly 'straight' reading of the Bible. You see, my mistake -apparently- is not using the OT more to inform my politics and social views. Thing is that this dispenstionalism is a heaviweight factor in the USA in some political motivations ...
