I have absolutely zero concern over whether or not I'm considered a conservative. That means nothing to me. My only concern is what God calls me. Being in truth is a radical thing so I don't mind being considered a radical.

That's correct. Why dance around the truth? Those who believe the fulness of the Acts 2:38 message, who have obeyed it's message, those who believe in and live a separated life, who have no fellowship with the world, are saved. Those who preach another Jesus, II Corinthians 11:4, are unsaved.
Let's shed light on what's really happening.

Well, in an absolute sense you our correct, but you apparently don't have a problem proclaiming someone else lost for showing a bit of elbow -or, heaven forbid, a bit of something sparkly in their ears.

Wow, this doesn't happen often, but while considering how to respond, I can't think of anything to say to this!

I have no problem proclaiming what the bible proclaims. It's funny, isn't it, that we proclaim Jonathan Edwards a hero for Sinners In The Hands of an Angry God, but in today's fuzzy-feel-good Christian world, when a man proclaims the truth, he's called names and made fun of. It's just a sign of where we are.
