EDIT: f) promotes and depends upon ignorance

I'm well aware that there are more moderates than fundamentalists but the moderates just give legitimacy to the fundamentalists.

And that rant, of course, is not recognized by you as an attitude of bigotry on your part?

Interesting...

Damn, I have to go to work right now. Define "bigotry". If it's a good definition, when I get back, I'll show that my position is not bigotry and that most definitions of christianity are.

I'm probably, frankly, not going to be here by the time you return. I joined this forum because it had areas for dream interpretation and allegedly for religion and spirituality. Since both are quite lacking here, I am going to move on and see what else is out there. This is just a total waste as far as I'm concerned. I'm not into programmed lucidity and closed-mindedness, and would really like to find a place where others are working knowledgeably with interpretation.

I just have to figure out who to ask to remove my poetry thread when I leave, as that is all copyrighted, and I don't really want it left here when I'm gone.

You are, frankly and based on nothing but your own words, one of the most close minded people that I have ever met.
