He doesn't know the difference between "there" and "their," for example. And then there's this: "There is nothing wrong with preaching against the evil of sin and the holiness of god." Given how little I understand the thoughts of the Christians on the net, I can't be confident; but I THINK that he did not mean to say that it is ok to preach against the holiness of god. However, I can't yet claim to have been offended by the things he's said. Upset, yes. Confused, yes. And I'd be far happier if there weren't any people in the world with some of the beliefs he has expressed. But life has a bad habit of not conforming to my wishes; I've learned to live with it, mostly. -- David Dyer-Bennet -- ...decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-mrvax!ddb
