I'm not quite sure what you mean by "Christians share many different
beliefs".
I interpret this as referring to different practices followed by different
denominations. This gives me the impression that you are not a Christian
nor sympathetic towards believers because our faith is founded on a
number of statements made by Christ. Any other additional rites or
practices are peripheral to our basic belief that salvation comes from
accepting Christ into our hearts and lives. Hence, any linking of Christian
faith to alchemical teaching sends out all the wrong messages.
::::::::::::::;
I was raised Baptist, attended protestant church, decided god was a
construct and defected to atheism, but I believe in things that have not
been scientifically proven, so I don't have any anti-"god" sentiments, I do
not however, believe in any way, shape or form in organized religious
practices where a small group interprets a document and tells the many what
it means and what they are to do, to me, that's the largest problem in
society, organized religion, not god.
