Welcome to So-Called Christian, where we present concise unorthodox material about a variety of biblical and church history topics that may challenge beliefs you’ve had since childhood. This is an independent, ad-free space designed for textual and historical exploration, open-minded discussions, and tough questions.

Many doctrinal and historical concepts surrounding modern Christianity are rarely discussed in everyday church settings, and that’s by design. Church leaders usually prefer to either avoid or gloss over most of them because they reveal uncomfortable truths. The mission here is to break down those topics into an objective, easily digestible format.

Each page linked below contains an overview, a one-page PDF cheat sheet, and a comments section.

• The Paper Pope - the modern and questionable doctrine of Sola Scriptura (“scripture alone”)
  
  
• Five Gospels - the most influential one doesn’t even have a formal name
  
  
• One Lord, One Faith, Two Pauls - can a Paul divided against himself stand?
  
  
• Marking-Up Mark - it was the first, but was it also the worst?
