[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 2670063, member: 24302"] Believe me, I grew up in the Church of Christ in a family of ministers. We're known in the South as believing we're the true Christian Church restored. I know all about infighting and conflict with various denominations. Very tiresome. But the extremes I was referring to is it seems every discussion relies on the most extreme scenarios which most people would reject but presented as the likely outcome if religion(or whatever situation we're discussing) gets a toehold. So everyone must do without if it means not offending whoever's pet peeve. I for one am not going to give in to that, I think we'd all be better off if we tried to the best of our ability to practice Christian principles(whether you believe in God and Jesus or not). None of us are perfect, but society would greatly benefit from striving towards the best we can be. [/QUOTE]
