[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 631440, member: 12508"] Excuse me, but have you ever seen "The 700 Club" or any of the numerous other Christian shows that mock Catholics, Jews, Muslims (among others)? The pious Pat Robertson and others (insert televangelist piece of crap here) makes me want to throw-up, yet he has the gall to call himself a follower of Jesus. His is a brand of "Christianity" I can do without. Here's what I really wanted to say all along, which is that Jesus probably wouldn't want very much to do with most "Christians". As Gandhi famously said, "I like your Christ, but I don't much like your Christians", when asked about US religious practices. I have to agree wholeheartedly with your last line, which supports my idea that religion often gives Jesus, or Allah, or Buddha (insert god here) a bad name. Nobody appreciates having any religious priciple forced upon them. whether it's at your front door (Jehovah's Witness, Mormons), at the water cooler, or on the belt at work. People make (insert deity here) look bad through their interpretations of what (insert deity here) originally intended. [/QUOTE]
