It's refreshing to read posts by someone who has an open mind and isn't afraid to use it. I certainly don't agree with all of your views but keep up the good work. Making people think is a service in itself.
Many people have challenged my presence here as well. They do not understand how someone can be concerned for their fellow man, be here to learn more about Christianity and yet does not call himself a Christian. You are being judged in the same blinkered way that I have been judged many times. Just tell them to read James 4:11-12.
11 Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it. 12 There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you--who are you to judge your neighbor? NIV
