True Christians are wonderful people. Intolerant Christians, not so much.

Like true Scottish people. I don't want to be a prick, but that's a can of worms, right there.

There's no one source which any Scotsman claims defines a Scotsman, though, whereas pretty much the core part of the definition of Christianity is following the teachings of Christ (it's in the name!), which the vast majority of bigots-who-call-themselves-Christians certainly don't.

That's still a tough one though. Do we stop at just the words of Jesus, or do we include the teachings of the apostles? And if we include the apostles, what about the Catholic 'continuation' of that? Or what about reinterpretations by self-proclaimed prophets that are part of the many fascinating, sometimes scary, and sometimes sizable 'sects'?
How about we replace gay marriage with Christian? I have found that in the same circles that want acceptance and open thinking start to sing a different tune when it comes to religion.
