Are there any "good" Christians around?
Edited on Fri Feb-10-06 02:44 PM by trotsky
Any who might want to explain to one of your flock how rude and insulting they're being?

On edit: the thread was thankfully locked.

3. I think of myself as a good HUMAN who happens to be a Christian.

9. No problem with that
but the loudmouths who rail against the tiny minority of atheists in this country while they completely miss the point of their own religion are giving you guys a lot of bad PR.

Maybe it's time for you to tell them to knock it off. After all, from what I read in the NT, Jesus would have hung out with atheists before he darkened the door of any rich Calvinist.

2. Been watching that messy thread unfold
And but for my popcorn post, I won't touch this with a ten foot pole.

What's amazing is how obviously detrimental the linking of religion and politics is, as this thread proves in spades.

Forgive them Father, they know not what they do...

11. Good Christians don't tell you they are "Good Christians"
You know it by their actions...which speak much louder than words.

As for the flock thing...they ain't my flock and I don't particularly like the shepard/sheep metaphor used by so many morans who call themselves "Christians".

12. Locking
From the DU rules:

Do not talk negatively about an individual in a thread where they are not participating. Do not post messages with the purpose of "calling out" another member or picking a fight with another member.
