Of course, there are a few of you who will blow a gasket on this, but well worth the read anyway.

.......................In his book, Miller describes his disdain for the us vs. them mentality between Christians and non-Christians.

"I felt, once again, that there was this underlying hostility for homosexuals and Democrats and, well, hippie types. I cannot tell you how much I did not want liberal or gay people to be my enemies. I liked them," he wrote. "The real issue in the Christian community was that (love) was conditional ... You were loved in word, but there was, without question, a social commodity that was being withheld from you until you shaped up."....................................
 
We have that book though I haven't read it yet. It was recommended to us by an Evangelical Christian teacher, no less.

The article points out a too common flaw of the Left which is they lump all (as in ALL) evangelical Christians into one big pot and call everyone a bigot. Very convenient and tidy of them but very inaccurate.

I'd write more but visitors arrived!

Sort of like lumping all Muslims into one big pot and calling them all terrorists.

Yes, there IS a difference between those in many 'groups', Christian groups included.

And sometimes it is hard to forgive the non-terrorist Muslims for not standing up and being counted as against those who have perverted the religion and use it as an excuse for terrorist activities.

What/where are the FACTS to de-fuse those who claim that even the Koran teaches that ALL Muslims must 'eliminate' "infidels", either via conversion or death?
