> INTOLERANCE AND BIGOTRY ARE NOT A FUNCTION OF CHRISTIANITY, OKAY?
I agree absolutely. I've had excellent friends that have been all denominations of Christianity. However, as there are more Christinas out there than the other groups (at least people who, when asked call themselves Christian) maybe the numbers of seemingly-annoying ones just seems disproportionately larger for this reason?
An American associate of mine has this exact same problem with people "insulting" stupid Americans on the 'net. I point out to her that there are more stupid Americans that and other nationality on the 'net simply due to there being more Americans that anyone else on there....
