Respecting Christian family and friends

[Drich]

I myself am not a fan of the fanatically religious. Or those who worship the art of worship/religion. Religion can be a double edged sword, in that it can bring people closer to God but at the same time religion can take people from Him.

Interesting. I wonder how many xtians share your point of view.

Sounds like what you are a fan of is your own interpretation of religion. That is the two edged sword. It divides those who are too rigid or lax from those who are just right. So it would seem not just man but your own ego is the measure of all things.

Of course, like every other xtian you would then go to the bible and grab a handful of scripture or two to prop up your point of view. Also interesting to note how every xtian who is not just right on the Drich scale does the exact same thing to prop of their errant perspectives.

what it seems like to me is someone is speaking to generalities smart atheists use when catching a christian hypocritically attacking one person's religious view while they ignore other parts of scripture. Where do you fail whateves? Your not going to be able to find a handful of NT doctrine I have over looked for another. Your appeal to stereotypes would generally work, but not here not with me concerning NT Christianity.
