different ways of<br>
cutting up the pie, but please allow me to suggest my own: There is<br>
Liberalized Christianity, Conservative Main Stream Christianity,<br>
Fundamentalist Christianity, the Kirk, Cults, and Groups Like the Taliban.<br>
I would recommend working with a framework like this in your analysis.<br>
Certainly, Dr. Gier's analysis is a bit more relevant than you suggest. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
