Not all people calling themselves Christians, are created equal.

It is quite possible to condemn the words of a man who happens to identify himself as a Christian, without condemning all Christians, or all of Christianity.

Can you understand that?

Yes.

And it would be wonderful, if every so often, you would direct your energies to some other endeavour than the condemnation of Christians. The way I feel about your posts lately is the way a guitar shop proprietor feels about Stairway to Heaven. How about giving your personal jihad a rest, at least for the duration of this crisis? Because you are capable of better.

Just give it a rest, OWK. You've already proved your selective outrage.

By the bye, let me ask a hypothetical question of an esteemed intellectual giant such as yourself. A T.V. network producer wants to do a comedy on the hapless Islamic terrorists and the antics of soot-covered and bloodied day-traders as they stumble down darkened stairwells. There's an outrage. The vast majority of people think that's a terrible injustice to be making a buck off of mass murder, and ask the producer to reconsider. He refuses, and thinks he's got a smart product and there's tons of interest, albeit outraged interest. Millions will be tuning in to see the comedic routines, and millions will be hurt emotionally and psychologically by it. Does the T.V. producer have a right to have his comedy show shown? And the vast majority have no right to ban this obscene production? Remember: This is a mere one week after the untold thousands of Americans were murdered in cold blood. Does the Bishop of Libertarianology who calls for unity side with the T.V. producer? Or with the vast majority of patriotic Americans?
