churchianity 

Churchianity is the devolution of Christianity into a mutual admiration society, a social club, which stresses adapting to the modern world instead of purging the evils out of this world. Instead of being driven by the ideas of exposing and opposing sin and eradicating evil, Churchianity strives make the pew occupants feel good about themselves while society self-destructs. Churchianity has abandoned the Ten Commandments in favor of promoting Self-Help, amplified with Bible verses. The Book of Revelation actually predicted this development, calling it the "Church of Laodecia," the church of lukewarm people.
Churchianity combines elements of Prosperity theology, Ecumenism, Universal Salvation, Modernism, "Higher Criticism," Syncretism, etc.

churchianity 

Looking down on a person for not having as much of an OUTWARD showing of their faith as you do... basically, using religon as a reason to judge another person. Judging people while in church rather than paying attention to the sermon. Having the attitude that attendance to church is more important than being a decent person. Having a "holier than thou" outlook towards people who don't attend church as much as you do. Exhibiting hypocritical behavior in regards to being religious.
I'm spiritual, not religious. I don't subscribe to churchianity.

Churchianity 

Modern day institutionalized Christianity. Basically the leader decides what is truth and what is lies based on a bunch of traditions. They have a tough time admitting that their organization is supreme to all others, and absolutely right. They could care less about being real assholes as long as they scare everyone into eating their Dogma like a good person. They pride themselves in the delusion that they are the chosen group, and condemn anyone not in their little club to their so called eternal torture fantasy. They are pretty good at taking scriptures out of context
Some guy in churchianity called me an ear itcher for pointing out that St. Paul spoke all about universal reconciliation.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
