Hmmm.... 14 yr old pastor's daughter... Maybe I was a little quick to judge, but I've been arguing with creationists since before she was conceived.
I've seen the "I'm not here to preach" approach far too often to take it at face value.
The "I'll pray for you" thing is also too regularly abused by the theists to be taken as anything other than disrespect.
Then we come to the usual attempt to blame life's misfortunes on the devil or man's free will. I find it interesting that the Jews (or certainly the rabbis) accept that their deity is both good and evil but the xtians need to invent a scape goat to absolve their deity of his responsibilities.
