| ______________________________ [Nov 5,2009 10:34am - Yeti ""] agreed, though it was kind of disappointing on Dead Again when he wrote that song "These Three Things" about the religious implications of abortion. however that song rules, so no need to worry about it. |
| _________________________________ [Nov 5,2009 10:35am - MikeOv ""] Was surprised when Steele started "identifying" himself as a Roman Catholic. Of all people. |

Someone's "smarts" and their "Christianity" cannot, by fact, be ubiquitous terms, as Christianity as a doctrine and a historical movement is wholly inaccurate, being so far removed from anything remotely historically relevant, as well as actual first-century Christianity itself. Pauline Christianity, Coptic, Greek Orthodox, whatever, have not survived well enough to even be noted as Christian. |

| ________________________________ [Nov 5,2009 5:56pm - sxealex ""] I think what he is trying to say is something like "flat earthists are stupid by nature because they believe the earth is flat". I dont agree but I do agree its a stupid belief. nawmean? smart people can have stupid ideas. |

Um, if you read what I said, anyone is perfectly capable of being intelligent and Christian, just not that their intelligence is defined by their Christianity. By the way, your statement was as blanketed as mine. The day personal assumptions become truth is the day my toe had a tag on it, asshole. |

The core beliefs of Christianity still exist? I could name dozens of brilliant scholars on both sides of the table to argue that point. I was not saying intelligence and Christianity go hand in hand, in either case, being a slight or a compliment. Intelligence and someone's beliefs are separate entities, sorry to disappoint. |

Um, if you read what I said, anyone is perfectly capable of being intelligent and Christian, just not that their intelligence is defined by their Christianity. And just to be completely honest, aside from a rational discussion, I have no problem being an asshole to any Christian, ever. If you'd personally like to absolve hundreds of years of poor leadership, cultural destruction, and shoddy historical research, please do so. If not, don't judge, because growing up in America means growing up in a Christian society, and to be unhappy with the many mishaps and judgments I've had to deal with being a fervent anti-Christian, it is impossible to be wholly objective and clear. |
