The venom is spewed in both directions. That's why I like places like this, where civil conversation is the rule.
And... we are extremely interested in religious subjects, because we seek truth. We are also very curious as to how and why others believe these things. We know that knowledge is power and that includes all knowledge. We know that you cannot form an intelligent opinion unless you know as much as possible about that which you want to form that opinion.
