[[But then, CottShop’s view of Christianity is, well, parochial, and he tends to declare just about everybody a heathen or a heretic eventually.]]
Wooops BZZZZT Another Atlaw LIE-
[[My original point, obviously lost this deep into the thread, was that it is as equally unfair to blame the theory of evolution for the criminal acts of Harris and Klebold as it is to blame Christianity for the criminal acts of those identified in my links.]]
Nope sorry- not true again- that was ONE of your ‘points’ however, then you tried to villify Christianity by pointing to isolated incidents of abuse and to a period that was controlled NOT by TRUE Christians, but by people drunk with power- People God specifically points out are NOT saved, but rather heritics- just as the Sadducees and Pharisees were- NO differences between htem and the early Catholic church which was governed and controlled by Secularists and who set up Secularists in positions they did NOT deserve!
[[And ancillary to that point, I was rebutting CottShop’s claim that criminality is disproportionately rare amongst Christians when compared to atheists.]]
BZZZZT Another LIE- I NEVER made the comparison- I am pointing out your misrepresentations, distortions, and flat out lies-
The links you pointed out indicate only a VERY small percentage of the overall Christian world- anyone can call themselves a Christian, and anyone can wear the robe these days- but their actions prove they are either TRUE Christians, or imposters- the fact that you can’t tell them apart in no way villifies TRUE Christianity, but again, only goes to show that the hearts of Secularists put in positions of authority in the church are FAR from God- again, you’ve managed to indict those you associate with- not Christianity contrary to your apparent hopes and dreams
Your words. That sure looks like a claim that criminality is disproportionately rare amongst Christians when compared to atheists.
You don’t need to point out the SINS of hte Catholic Church to me sir- those people are NOT God’s representatives- they are NOT true Christians
Your words. That dismisses 1.098 billion Christians as either heathens or heretics. Add to that all the Christians you dismiss as either heathens or heretics because they accept the theory of evolution or disagree with your narrow "interpretation" of Genesis, and parochial doesn't begin to describe your views.
