I understand. I tried to stay out of this one but you know, I hate to stand by while people are saying mean things. I'm not an Evangelical Christian, but I am a Christian and I feel that anyone's faith should be defended. There are a lot of things on this list that I try to stand up for but don't necessarily believe myself. It's kind of like playing Devil's Advocate (is there a better phrase for this here? :-) ) I've found that it helps me to understand why people think the way that they do, and to understand that could there are many viewpoints on an issue, none of which may be absolutely valid.
