Yeah. That's about, what, less than 10% of the Christian population ? And in this 10%, how many actually push their agenda in schools ? 20% ? And based on this tiny minority you make your opinion of ALL christians. Anecdotal evidence is not convincing evidence, and you can't judge a population by its worst members. It's like saying Muslims are dangerous because some of them are extremists: it's just nonsense.

Also there is no way you could know what my "tune" would be depending on where i was, so that was a bit condescending. I think there's a name for that logical fallacy, can't remember it now though.
