Your title doesn’t make sense

How would you revise it to make sense based on the contents of the article?

According to the religio-cultural relativists, no one dare say one religion is superior to another. Unfortunately, that requires denying any true religious beliefs and treating religion as just another lifestyle choice.

“Becoming perfected ‘ is a theological term in Christianity that means becoming Christlike by allowing Christ to live in you. By allowing that you are becoming or allowing Christ to “perfect” you to become more like him in thought and deed. We don’t ever arrive to perfection. We can not become perfect by ourselves. Only through Christ. This is a daily walk and journey. I think Ms. Coulter didn’t give herself the amount of time to explain this. Maybe Donny jumped the gun and took it to mean that in the worse possible way. Ann was trying, I think, to state the difference between Christians and Jewish religion. I believe Mother Theresa strove to become “perfected in Christ” by her daily walk in giving her life and all the areas of it to Christ.

Neither does his comment:
I'd always given Ms. Coulter a wide berth on her views despite some of the bizarre things she'd espouse. Not anymore.

The only way these people could possibly be insulted is if they already think they *are* perfect.

Christians don’t believe they are perfect, they believe we are ‘credited’ with righteousness through faith, just the same as Jesus-believing Jews are. That faith is also not of our doing, it is the work of God, so that we cannot boast. So there is no anti-semitism involved at all. WE are no more ‘worthy’ than anyone else, in and of ourselves.

It makes sense but it is so totally wrong.
