Please see the BB Guide for forums
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

Okay thanks now let me separate your quote as a test

The other factor is that when you reply to too many quotes in one post the whole thing quickly becomes unreadable.
