    I don't think I made my point very well. What I was trying to get at is that saying it is OK to disagree makes a lot of believers say "you have your idea, I have mine". I don't think that is what Paul is getting at in Romans 14 or anywhere for that matter.

    It is clear in Galations 5 that divisions and factions are a work of the flesh and not a fruit of the Spirit. Too often people say they have convictions from the Holy Spirit when they have merely concluded something with their own carnal mind. They then resist others who truly been taught by the Spirit and are walking in truth.

    The labels that Tali is concerned with are a result of the flesh and not of the Spirit of God. They should not be deemed acceptable in any way. Inevitable yes, acceptable no.
