>> How many pentecostal/evangelical Christians have you "met"? <<

I said Christians as a WHOLE, not "pentecostal/evangelical Christians". What is it with the "born again" crowd on FR thinking THEY speak for all "Christians" in the world? They're actually a small minority of Christians in America, and an even smaller percentage worldwide.

>> I find it hilarious that mormonism defenders sooner or later resort to bashing Christians on FR <<

I am a Christian, your post makes as much sense as saying "I see the defenders of women on FR sooner or later resort to bashing bashing men". You can scream "Mormon defender" at me all you want, I've said Mormonism is a wacko cult about 20 times so I'm pretty sure the Mormons wouldn't want to have me as their defender. All I mentioned is there's far more Christians who fail to practice what they preach than Mormons. If you think that's "Christian bashing" as a whole, take it up with "Christians" like Bill Clinton, Al Gore, and Jimmy Carter. I'm not going to pretend the fact they're self-described "practicing Christians" makes them morally superior to Mormons. There's lots of phony Christians in America, which you "born again" types evidently ignore think you think nobody is "Christian" but yourselves. and also claim mormon superiority over Christians.

Oh...so the mormons who are less than 3% of the population are touted as being morally superior over ALL Christians while at the same time the Pentecostal/Evangelicals are NOT treated as a sub group of the Christians that are being bashed.

They're actually a small minority of Christians in America, and an even smaller percentage worldwide.

I see...the minimal mormon minority is "special" but a minority of Christians who lead their lives in a moral manner are lumped in with the liberals in order to give a false picture. Cherry pick much?

BTW, the Pentecostal group is growing at a much faster rate than is the mormon, and the Pentecostals don't fudge their numbers by counting babies, inactives and inactives under the age of 110 as do the mormons. But I guess "lyin for the lord" about numbers is "morally superior", right?

This comment by you, "There's lots of phony Christians in America, which you "born again" types evidently ignore think you think nobody is "Christian" but yourselves. is waving a red flag on this Pro-God, Pro Christian website. We consider many, many Catholics, Protestants and non-affiliateds Christian, that is the ones who do not believe that "man may become god" and that "Jesus had to work His way up through manmade rituals.
