Btw, I'm an agnostic. :)

He is. I've noticed this in other threads. I know other Christians just like him. It's unfortunate. :(

How am I a bigot? You guys are just delusional PC maniacs. Please provide evidence so I can refute.

You have an obvious bias against Muslims (gays too, if I recall correctly). Sorry, I didn't keep a list of instances and I'm not going to spend the next hour searching for them - just something I've noticed since you've been here.

Just like a typical PC maniac, you are misinterpreting my opinions.

Let me ask you this - have you ever read the Koran? Have you ever watched Iranian/Saudi/Palestinian TV? Honestly, when the Iranian President proclaims the west to "believe in God or perish" while developing nuclear weapons, it doesn't make you a little bit biased?

You really should read up on history - or pick up a current newspaper for that matter. You are severely mis-informed.





Radical Christian = interprets Jesus's words literally and lives as Jesus did.
Liberal Christian = bends Jesus's words and somehow interprets to be "can't use medicine," or "kill 1 baby killer, save 1000 babies"

Radical Muslim = kill the infidel
Liberal Muslim = interprets Koran's urge for jihad as self-struggle

Radical Christian + Liberal Muslim = Peace

Using your example, if you take religion out of the equation, all you are left with is peace - novel concept, eh?

Sure, I agree with you to a certain degree. If I were born Catholic, I would probably be excommunicated. Heck, I don't even go to church. However, I've concluded Christianity as a religion serves better than the established "religion" not existing at all. The media and the atheists love to focus on the unfortunate negative aspects of "The Church" (but ironically ignore negatives of other religions :roll: ) and ignore all the good that churches around the world do.

Sure, but it makes me dislike the president of Iran, not Muslims.

If not hating someone because of their religion is PC, then color me politically correct. :music: And I'm a maniac, maniac on the floor. And I'm dancing like I've never danced before :music:

Part of being xian requires proselytizing. So, yes by far, most xians are bible-thumpers.
