^^^Exactly. The mental gymnastics online to separate her as completely different is rather...
Meghan DID Attend Church Services, was a church goer even before she’d ever met Harry.
She went to a christian school.
As has been reported, her parents have christian roots, as in, they did belong to different denominations of the Protestant faction of the christian church.
Some people were baptised as babies, doesn’t mean they or their parent(s) lead christian lives. A lot of people have their babies baptised as part of a tradition and not necessarily because they have faith. It’s not my place to judge.
Plenty christians get baptised / confirmed later on in life and that doesn’t mean they never had faith in Christ before then and it certainly didn’t make them any less children of God, so long as they have faith in Christ. It takes a specific type to suggest otherwise.
People can be be very religious, go church every single Sunday and still have dark hearts, still be unkind by nature... People can go church every now and then, have faith and belief within their hearts, pray in their hearts within the home or wherever and still be a true follower of Christ.
Being a yoga enthusiast doesn’t make you any less of a christian. Being a free spirit doesn’t preclude a person as a believer in Christ either, nor does getting wed in a registry or on a beach somewhere sunny etc.
Different churches are set up for different reasons. The Church of English has its origins in adultery but I wouldn’t suggest that makes it any less of a christian church. Christ is a forgiving, loving, welcoming body after all and NOT mean-spirited. Or sanctimonious.
The true flock of Christ understands this and lead by example.
This quite sums it up! Thank you for writing this. I was rather upset by the unbending version of Christianity that people attribute to the Church of England. At the heart of Christianity, at least what I know in America is the heart of forgiveness, not judgement.
It is hard to judge when you don't know the complete truth or have all the facts. Rumors and gossip are not enough to form a judgement on someone else.
