Open discussion of the Christian Why We're Here thread

Not bad but I prefer your own willingness to accept non-Christian adults on their own terms better.  In a community like this, for anyone to tell another that I can never accept the choice you've made is the height of arrogance.  I get that most Christians who take their marching orders from a long dead book feel compelled to foist their beliefs on everyone else.  Regrettable, but I don't blame them for lying in the bed they've made.  But thank you, no thank you should be the end of it.  Anything beyond that is indicative of self importance unchecked and untenable for anyone who doesn't share those beliefs who has even a shred of self respect.

I've often said I am not on a mission to spread the good news that religion is shot through with errors and entirely unnecessary, although I believe both of those things.  Many Christians need an attitude adjustment in order to become good neighbors in the wider community.  Thank you Cath-y for showing the way.
