I try to be civil on these threads. And pretty much always it's the Christian who begins the vicious personal attacks. It is acceptable for me to say that is not very Christian behavior?
BTW, I stay away from the "good" or "bad" Christian thing. With so many variants of the religion over the years and even today it would be difficult to peg exactly what that would be. How literal do you go? A woman not covering her head when praying? Literally in the NT that's a no-no. But I know most Christians take it more figuratively, as in follow the normal customs. Then translation gets to be a bitch, as in should I call a person a bad Christian because he doesn't kill any witches (Wiccans) he may meet? I know the translation issue on this, but all modern Bibles say witch or sorceress.
All I can do is recognize behavior that, in the Christian upbringing I had, I recognize as not being in the spirit or the letter of the religion.
LOL! I’ll tell you what, let’s see where the demeaning and personal attack began on this thread, shall we?
I beg to differ. Many of GGG's threads don't even have any creationists show up yet before they are spammed with evos making derogatory remarks.
And I've seen other evos themselves state differently.

It's pretty much a waste of time, and as I said before, it's virtually always in the context of manipulating Christians. I've seen it done enough when it's simply a matter of the non-Christian not liking something the Christian said or did.
There were some people I used to work with who did that thing constantly. They'd object to something, throw out the bad Christian accusation, and walk out of the room. It's never done in a exhorting, correcting way, as in correcting a brother who was wrong.
