What a polarized view. You can't really believe that the alternatives are to love god and follow, or hate him on one's own. Can you?

What about all the vocal christians who hate? What about all the complete agnostics who manage to cultivate love and kindness every day?

Is god really the sort to draw a line in the sand with his big toe and then dare us to cross it?

Any other "conservative" christians out there By "conservative Christian" I mean holds as closely as possible to the Christian Scriptures (the New Testament) as possible, attends church regularly, believes Christ's words even when they're unpopular (for instance when He says in the book of John, "I am the way, the truth, and the life and no one comes to the Father but by me."), etc... Don't get me wrong, I respect all religions and I suspect we all have a lot to learn from each other. But Christ and the Bible has done too much to help Rating: 5
