As far as I can make out, they don’t even come up to the level of Unitarians.

You're probably right. Unitarian/Universalists hardly make a pretense of being Christian. This ‘lady’ does.

Tell you what. Without the hope of the Resurrection, Christianity has no point at all. So all the “do-good” stuff in it, love your neighbor, help the poor, the widow and the orphan, the prisoners, the lame and blind, mean nothing either.

It's every man for himself without some higher authority, some source of absolute morality. Not necessarily the Christian God, but without belief in some God, what basis is there for any morality, other than it feels good.

Right, that is liberalism. And when it doesn't feel good?
