Your point that those whose faith is based in fundamental Dominionism
is somehow anathema to rational humanist society is correct. However,
my point is that not all Christians are Reconstructionists just as all
Jews are not Orthodox and all Muslims are not Wahabists. To view all
Christians, Jews and Muslims as essentially the same is - well, no
other word for it - bigoted.
I never said all religious people were extremists. Are you going to
pretend
I said that anyway, just to maintain an imaginary edge in this discussion?
Heh - nice try Doug.
You got caught, you tried to weasel your way out of it and you lost.
No more discussion or prolonged dissertations needed. Your whole
construct is dust and no magic potion (as in off track misdirection or
unpleasantness) will put it back together again.
Keep this lesson in mind the next time you want to paint with a broad
brush.
Sorry. I thought you were reading **ALL** the messages in this thread, not
just the response to your messages. You missed something which would've
prevented you from saying "broad brush". It was a response to Del Cecchi.
Here it is.
Kristian: Someone who uses their religion to defeat humanitarian programs in
countries they really don't care about.
Christian: Someone who doesn't.
That's not painting with a broad brush. That's perfectly true and accurate.
However, I'll add 3 words to the definition of Kristian. Now, the definition
reads "....don't care about, including THIS country."
