Seriously though, on this forum there seem to be very few 'enlightened' christians (christians who incorporate enlightenment, secular and/or liberal values to their interpretation/expression of their faith). For some reason, it tends to attract a more literalist and/or right-wing crowd. Many of the theists I see are from the US: that may have something to do with it. Maybe it's just confirmation bias on my part...
