If you have something specific in regards to me, seriously let me know. (although I by no means, think that I am perfect, or think that the New Testament requires it).
Keep in mind, however, that even if we disagree, that doesn't necessarily mean that I'm ignoring something. We have to look at things within context, which includes context in the rest of Scripture. Also, if you come to me with something, you need to be honestly reading and wanting to understand the intentions of the author, not proof texting or using the text as a rhetorical weapon (use the principle of charity). You may also note, that I think that a rigid atheistic fundyism is just as bad if not worse than rigid Christian fundyism. I'm not into artificial rules, that you wouldn't apply to other things.
