I think that's the underlying problem with labels, and yet they are a necessary
evil. So many groups have been borne of a desire to be non-denominational and
unifying; then begin to focus on what makes them different from everyone else
to the degree that they become just like them. Yet, when you consider that the
subject matter is ultimate truth - you can understand all the fervency. The
head to head approach of many is entirely fruitless, though.
