Re: The Church Of Eunuchs
Church "by definition" is "The Whole Body of Christians". It is Christ centered. It can be made up of eunuchs but Christ must be the center for it to be a church.

Possibly by one definition, a "church" is Christian, but that is not always a truism.
Even the definition you quote says "especially" (as in "most often") rather than "exclusively" (always).
