" I think using the ID/Crevo/Evo issues as a wedge between otherwise like minded conservatives is a STUPID thing,

Don't expect an honest exploration of differing perspectives or the inclusion of Theistic Evolution and Intelligent Design in with the really, truely, honest-to-God Consdervative Christians by the Young Earth Creationists. They have an us-versus-them approach to samvation and behave like there are only a limited number of seats in Heaven reserved only for those who believe exactly the way they do. Disagree and you will be bullied, insulted and threatened while they stand on the abuse button.

There is a reason they continue to hijack News/Activism threads instead of conducting these discussions in the Religion Forum. The Religion Forum requires a higher level of civility and decorum.

I have seen abuse on both sides so I would suggest that we not stereotype (not the word I am looking for). I have been nothing but civil to you and you to me.

Be more precise, the way The Word tells them. As far as limited seats, let's see if there are....

Matt 7:14 "But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it".

Matt 7:22,23 "Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?' Then I will tell them publicly, 'I've never known you. Get away from me, you evil people.'

Seems like many think they are going but won't. Disobedience 'ya think - they went on their own understanding of things - not knowing Him or believing His Word? Wanted to travel the wide road, follow the masses, and not the narrow road?

With an attitude like yours, an honest discussion isn't possible.

You've sabotaged it already.
