Discussion, not Provocation

[vorlon13]

In English when you say "theists are dumb" doesn't that imply that you mean all? I always read it as all if you don't specify that you mean some.

That's how I see it too. When I'm going to make a comment like that, I'm always very careful to put the word "some" in there.

It's tough generalizing about Christians, that's for sure. Things that were gospel universal truths about 'all' US Christians when I was a kid back in the 60s are by and large looked at askew these days. Even our more strident Jesus people here come across as a 'flaming liberals' when eval'd by the standards that I learned in Sunday School.

Weird, ain't it, how fast an Eternal and Unchanging God can rewrite the rules in less than one human life span ??

It's far easier generalizing about Mormons as they are eager to excommunicate members of their flock who stray into heresy and apostasy. Mormons, at least, recognize quality control and consistency of their product. Most 'mainline' Christian denoms seem to put folks with 'funny ideas' in charge these days . . . .
