Question? Why should anyone keep screaming aniti-christ, or ignorant fool, at anyone? Isn't one just as free to believe in Jesus as one is not to? Should either be condemned? No one here is repsonsible for any ills committed, perceived or otherwise, by an any insititution or thought process, when they were growing up. If a community forced religion down your throat, until you grew to resent it, Only those specific people who harrassed you, are at fault. Not anyone else, or any institutions. Many people practice all types of religion with honor and respect. If someone chooses not to believe, or to believe(I could care less, which you choose) That can also happen with dignity and respect. Name calling and avarice(of which I am just as guilty) does no one any good, it just brings negative energy to yourself, and ruins your own day, since everyone here is somewhat intractable (myself included) in their opinions anyway. There can be more discussion and more opprtunity to learn, without rancor and vitriol. There is also more personal dignity in that path, despite any perceived slights you imagine yourselves to have suffered. Just a thought, mark
