As a Christian, I appreciate your respect. I have my beliefs and even went to Bible College, but I'm not going to run around screaming that everyone else is wrong. I doubt many people have come to believe through picketing, yelling, and being holier-than-thou. Its all about relationships, not preaching at people.
What I really feel is unfair is that some people judge the Independent Churches of Christ (the non-denominational denomination I associate myself with) by what some other people associated with the group say (ie, "9/11, Katrina, etc is because of the gays" and so on). We're INDEPENDENT churches, as in what those guys say are independent of what I may believe.
Also, in before the title change. ;-)
