Jon, I think the point Levi is trying to make is that you can be a Christian but find a church you actually agree with. There are plenty of other institutions to choose from that you wouldn't need to be defending why you go despite having vast differences in ideology.
If you don't agree with all the quotes and points Levi and others have provided, which seems like a large chunk of what the church preaches, then why keep going to that particular church? I believe that is the point he is making.
