> Must one be affiliated with a specific church to have faith in a higher order?
No.

If honoring the issue of faith means supporting faith, yes.
> I'm absolutely supportive of faith, but am leary of dogma and exclusivity in any form. It was not a put-down, only an opinion.
Saying you're leery of something isn't being very supportive of it. And opinions can be put-downs, too.
> I don't criticise your wanting to redirect, but wonder about your reasons for doing so. Perhaps you yourself are sensitive about someone else's differing views on Christianity?
Or perhaps my reason is what I said it was?
