Robin,
My only concern with your type of thinking is that in the end we might end up being like that guy with his hands lifted up, extolling his religiousity and no where nearer to the guy who is pounding his chest but still going home justified. Antisepticity is useful if you are attempting to anaethetize yourself from the infection. We are however told to be salt, and salt gets into the wounds, it gets dirty, it is love that is not just prescriptive, it is redemptive. We cannot be a commentary we need to be as Christ to the world, or else our Christianity will not float like old Noah's rubber ducky.
