Milleby,
I have absolutely no issues with the points you're making; however, I'm left a bit confused about your intent. Your family member comes off as a kind and considerate person and what I would call an ally against the lunacy of Christian fundamentalism. Personally I would leave well enough alone on this particular matter. In fact, I can easily imagine a fundamentalist believer pointing to the exact same verses to buttress their overall interpretation of scripture.
