Don't feel bad about it, neither, cause as mentioned, they've not been shy about crowing the misfortune of others, have they now ?

Nah, Anthony gnabbed this one above, though I would put Chris as a close second, esp the last part. I'm surprised John hasn't had anything to say about it yet actually.

That anti Christian thing is creating a backlash in me. Christians are really pretty inoffensive, socialists, not so much ;) but seriously, I wonder if people like Dobson are just out there to convince Christian sheep to jump off a bridge and take their image with them, Christians need to eb a lot more suspicious of their coked up allies.

Re: this sort of nonsense, I'll say they're also none too bright, they never seem to get the message. It's like passion of the Christ, where the guy who played Jesus was hit by lightning. If looking for a sign, it couldn't be like He might make it obvious or something.

Well, I'm a Christian. Not a good one, to hear other Christians tell of it. My willingness to believe certain things makes me unpopular in certain circles.

Hello,

Well, I'm a Christian. Not a good one, to hear other Christians tell of it. My willingness to believe certain things makes me unpopular in certain circles.

1) That a multi-millenial game of 'telephone' coupled with the selfish interests of politicians and governments and organized religious institutions might have corrupted any divine message.

2) My acknowledgement that evolution makes a lot of sense.

3) My belief that people ought not to be hated for being different.

4) That we should be nice to one another whenever possible.

5) That no human being knows who is going to hell, or can difinitively say what God believes in.

6) That a healthy dose of uncertainty about God's plan ought to exist, to be eliminated only if and when God explains it to us.

I consider these truths to be self-evident, and compatible with Christianity. So, I call myself a Christian. Lots of other Christians disagree. But I like to imagine there's more Christians like me out there.

--Anthony
