I would take it with a grain of salt.

Then I am sure you don't mind the liberals around here taking you with a grain of salt.

Of course not.

The first Book of Epley chapter 1 and verse 1 "Everyone is someone's liberal and everyone is someone's conservative."

I think so too.

But where should the line be drawn? According to scripture or according to everyone's interpretation of scripture?

The outcome of the counsel in Jerusalem as to how to instruct the gentlies stragely did not involve red shoes or neck ties, though some may have thought so.

Could this verse possibly apply here?

2 Corinthians 10:12
For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

I don't think we should draw the line or try to come up with a full set of rules. Why not respect one another enough to allow each person to live by his/her convictions and leave the judging up to God? Or is that too radical a concept?
