Knowing both of the posters to whom you addressed your comments, I would state with confidence that the characterization "god-shouting-fanatic", is not one which they would apply to you, or to any rational theistic human being.

Hey buddy, sometimes I LIKE to be called a "god shouting fanatic" (its complementary in some circles I know. :-^)

You know that I and some other theists on this forum are pretty fanatic when it comes to freedom, too. And that was the point of my post. I believe that those who do not choose Christ are making a tragic mistake. I also believe that trying to force a moral code onto people or force a religion into people's lives is a monstrous evil.

G-d does'nt want forced servitude, be it men forcing men to serve themselves, or men forcing men to "serve" G-d (which is ultimately, another serving of men). Socialism is evil. "Point of the Sword" evangelism is evil. Some of us are fanatically passionate about G-d and freedom; the posters I responded to did'nt seem to acknowledge that.
