Christians themselves it seems have a different view to the good Captain,

And EACH OTHER, which validates my point!

Christianity has a lot to say about the issues of life, death and destiny

Teaching of course is just another way of saying things. Is one to understand that Christianity teaches nothing? This atheist would find it hard to argue this. Arguably rather, all Christianity has is its teachings, though I would certainly agree interpretations of such can be thick on the ground.

”Christianity” is such a broad and unspecific term, that it means different things to different people, to the point where it (collectively) “teaches” things that contradict itself. So to declare what Christianity teaches is almost meaningless since Christians can’t even agree to that.

CJG: There is confusion only when people willfully choose to ignore that which is stated and go their own way.

Captain: Which is what EVERY Christian does ...

But, er, if you have just claimed, firmly, that Christianity really doesn't state anything,

No I didn’t. You have just firmly created a straw man argument. Go back and read what I actually wrote (quote it if you need to), without making your own edits to add or remove emphasis on selected words. You’ll find that I said something very different than what you just claimed.

then how can that which is not allegedly stated be, 'ignored?' Have you thought this through?

I have, but the degree to which you are capable of comprehending seems questionable at this point in time since you decided to change the meaning of what I wrote..
