Hi Wmrawls.

I didn't come to the thread to offend anyone and it seems that you're the only one that's offended. I'm really not sure why and if there's one thing that I really dislike it's when I've annoyed someone and they won't tell me why.

Please explain to me where (or if) I've attacked someone else. You even respond defensively saying that you're not narrow minded nor selfish. Did I call you narrow minded? Did I call you selfish?

It's a fact that Christians have killed non-believers en-masse. I guess we'll just have to disagree over whether this was a good thing or not for those that were killed.

I said that Christianity has made the world better for some and worse for others.

I guess that you can only see that Christainity has made the world better. Is that not narrow minded? How can you look at the positives and blindly ignore the negatives?

Finally, you say that

Part of the process of having a converstation involves listening (or reading) to the the words of the other person, then reacting to them. I'm not sure what you mean by that statement. Do you mean that I should not be replying to someone based on the context of their last statement?

What does intolerant mean?

I freely admit that I have a problem understanding religion. Hence the questions. Are we not allowed to ask questions?

If it's gone to the pits I'm not the one who dragged it down there.


Geneb, MyUncle and JeepfanFL (and Xyress and JWilker). Since this thread looks like it may not be able to continue on an even keel, thanks for providing intelligent and well thought out responses.
