  1. I am currently involved in a mainline evangelical church but have been gravitating towards more progressive ideals through the years. Lately, I have found that I have reached the point where I no longer fit in with what my chuch considers its core beliefs. As a vocational minister, abandoning my church and the evangelical position would be catastrophic for my ministry and career. Yet, I'm at that point where I find myself dancing around topics for fear of saying something that contradicts the church but is in line with what I believe. Frankly, I am not sureof what I believe anymore and am in the process of redefining what I believe. What makes me say that I am not sure I belong here is that I am not certain I subscribe to this forum's views either. It seems this forum has chosen 8 markers of a progressive christian and has chosen to exclude those who do not fit all 8. Personally, I have a hard time with 2, 3, and 4. Having said that, point 3 says it was deleted and replaced with point 7, which I do agree with. Point 4 says it was restated as point 3 (which would mean it was also deleted and replaced with point 7). That being the case, then I have no problem with those and only have a problem with number 2, but I wonder why these points are divided into 8 if 3 and 4 have been replaced with 7, shouldnt that leave 6 points?. Nevertheless, I have a problem with at least one of those.
