Tom, Dwight has claimed several times that I am evil, and a witch, because I have different beliefs than he does. He has written lists of pagan gods and goddesses on posts he has written me, implying I somehow believe in them, and today he said he doesn't believe I am who I say I am. So while I understand what you are saying, some Christians like Dwight do tend to insinuate that they are more ethical and moral than people with other belief systems.

Also, I am not sure whether you are aware that many non-Christians do not believe in everything about Christ and Christianity, but consider Jesus a prophet, or one of the few very important spiritual leaders who ever lived on earth, and have a lot of respect for Him, as they understand Him. Certainly, this is part of my belief system. So I am not sure I create such an absolute divide as some people do about Christians and non-Christians.

Here is something interesting--an organization of Atheists for Jesus. I am not a member, but I found it on the web, and offer it as an example that there is a myriad of belief systems that blend together at the edges for some people.

><>...Salvation belongeth unto the LORD!...><>

Ps 3:1-8
1 LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.
3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
4 I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.
7 Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
8 Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.

Praise God, Praise God!
