I think it's fascinating that one of the more well intentioned christian beliefs, the equality of man as fellow sinner, is inextricably bound to an explicitly intolerant fundamental premise.
-then there's the red letter answer..easily my favorite. A loooooot of people are going to hell. Most of them evangelical christians. While they endlessly wring their hands over abortion and homosexers.... they get their stance on poverty, global warming, racial discrimination, the role of the military, capital punishment, foreign aid, and public education entirely wrong.
