I am a member of a Metropolitan Community Church.

I believe that the trinity is easily understood except when people fundamentally misunderstand the philosophy of categories. However, almost everyone does. No category in this universe is actually completely self-contained or unitary. This can be trivially demonstrated with the paradoxes outlined in the book Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid by Douglas Hofstadter, but with a deeper understanding these magic tricks of contradiction are not mysterious.

I believe the Bible is the inspired word of God, but "we have this treasure in earthen vessels:" much human viewpoint has necessarily become involved in the verbiage that reduces the divine level to our level. Words in general are human constructions and are taxonomic and operational in nature: neither these generalities (words as taxa) or recipes (words as operational instructions) can encompass the full divine truth or bear the weight of infallibility.

I believe in spiritual gifts.

I am happy with all sorts of worship, from stately hymns to modern Christian music to Pentecostal speaking in tongues. I also support Christian dhyana, meditation and the accumulation of wisdom and serenity.

I am suspicious of tradition. Anything that burned witches for hundreds of years has to be watched.

I believe in free will.

I know nothing about "name it and claim it" Christianity, the Word of Faith movement, the teachings of Joel Osteen, and all other branches of the prosperity movement. However, having read Blackstone's explanation, I can see what they are trying to do. This is one of many attempts to make a Christian method of grappling with (regular, not non-transmigratory) karma, which is a gaping lacuna in Western philosophy and thus requires opinionated, possibly cultish infill. Basically it is an assertion that the spiritual cup is half full rather than half empty, and this positive assertion is then expect to redound further positive karma, with God and the blessing-claiming person as redounding interactors. Sorry, I know that sounds like nonsense, but we simply have no language for it.
