Sorry to have offended you, that is not what i meant by my post at all. ..."buzz off buddy, I want to say my thing and don't you even give me a different opinion"... I value other's opinions, and am easily swayed by a pursuasive arguement. I enjoy that actually, reasessing my view based on new information. What i dislike, and turns me off from taking part, is when replies are just reactions, and seem to be fired off with no attempt to hear and empathise with the other persons point, just to negate it.
Again, i'm sorry if you've heard that line ..."can't take it to hear anything related to Christianity"... too many times. I'm happy to listen to views about Christianity, but the tone of some reactions is what is over the top IMO and what brought me out of the shadows to actually post. I see nothing wrong with speaking up about it when something feels offensive.
