“Don’t let them get to you”
A lot of Christians are acting very hostile. Even when the Bible says love your enemies. I’m a Christian, but i also believe in an open mind. Thanks for the not abusing my e-mail address. Don’t let them get to you. If they do get to you, maybe thinking how they feel (or how they [...]

The hate-mail posters are clearly not acting in a “Christian” way, but as you’ve noted, that doesn’t make Christians or other theists bad or even hypocrites.

Hi, just wanted to drop you a line saying what a breath of fresh air i found your site/blog I find the way you’re willing to engage in debate with both ‘in-your-face’ atheists (as you call them) and theists heart-warming and deffinatly a large improvement over the GOD-SUCKS type websites which, while i agree with [...]

I have been perusing your blog for about an hour now, and have read a few dozen of the hate mail posts. I am 20 years old and was raised a strong Christian my entire life. More than anything else, it seems like the sharing of God’s love was more important than anything else in [...]
