The difference between Betty Boop and Alamo-Girl is that they allow for different viewpoints amongst Christians, rather than damning those who disagree over interpretational issues. I have interacted with both many, many times, and I have never once been treated by either like I’m the enemy. You and DallasMike are a whole different breed of “Christian.” And until you tone down your condemnatory rhetoric, you can bet I will be ready to great you with ALL the respect you deserve.
Thank you for pointing out the speck (”mote”) in my eye...
No, we're scientists who have had to clean up after the mess that you've made.
Am I a little rough on this issue? Yes. Read Galatians, the books to the Corinthians. Paul was extremely blunt. Read the Gospels, Jesus was no shrinking violet.
I've seen what the Young-Earth Creationist movement has done. I have to work doubly hard spreading the Gospel to people who think that every Christian is living in the Dark Ages. I've had to help restore faith to people who have been duped by the movement you're so proud of.
