Dan,
Okay, I get it. But I dont necessarily agree.
Many have said that all that is necessary is to believe that Jesus is the way, and there is no other way.
What you are saying(I think) is that any Christian could not be be a racist and hatemonger if he follows the principles embedded in Christianity.

That is not necessarily true. There are many people who believe that the one and only way is through Jesus, but still hold much hatred in their hearts. That can also be true of any other religion(so you dont feel I am focusing too much on any one belief system) It is very possible to have someone who believes strongly in Jesus and still wallows in hatred.
Isnt it mentioned somewhere in the Bible that believeing that HE is the only way is the only thing necessary? Given that, you can very possibly have a racist who believes in both things(racism and Christianity). there are many sites on the net who purport to hold those beliefs very dear.

How can they be shown heaven's door before ghandi, only because they called god by a different name?

Mark

I probably wont be around too much the next few days, so Happy Holidays and good health to everyone!
