Golf, for two thousand years there has been sort of a lot of discussion about this topic. Now, maybe everyone gets it wrong but Joe Smith. Cool. That is not the point here. The point is, what do you call a collection of ideas that have been a "brand" for several millennia? That collection is known as "Christian". Like intellectual copyright stuff. Your collection of ideas is just as worthy. Heck, let's say its even better than the other brand. But even if that is true, you can't call your new stuff the same name as the old brand. Why? One reason is because the two collections of ideas are in fact different, and the other is because it would confuse people who recognize that old brand name and think that they are getting the old product - when in fact they are not.

All I'm saying.

That is the bottom line.
