[DCPatriot]

Heck...I was an avid altarboy and taught by the Jesuits.

Growing up, the Catholic religion grounded me.

Today, I don't particularly believe or follow any one major faith.

But...I know it's not right to harm another person, or steal from him...and to respect myself.

And it's not fear of government or authority or punishment that keeps me from committing crimes. It's just common sense of decency.

I had exactly the opposite upbringing. I was as hostile to religion then as you are now. So your antipathy to real belief doesn't bother me.

Your failure to surpass the Muslims in understanding, get over the Crusades already, and stick to beefs about Christianity in recent history, do.

But then you're not posting to please me.
