- This reads like an overused keyboard macro. Disable it for a
- few moments, turn on the cerebral cortex, and point to the
- specific hate-containing portions of this rather ponderous
- and somewhat preachy post. I don't even know if I agree with
- the original poster, but I know that I am *sick* of reading
- "if you profess to be a Christian..." followed by idiotic
- accusations, seldom true and typically irrelevant.
