Scary stuff indeed ... but whatever happens, I maintain the Affirmation of Acknowledgement (courtesy of the Universal Church of Eclectic Wicca), which reads:

I: I acknowledge the presence of other faiths* on my planet, indeed, right here in my city/town/village. I acknowledge that the followers of these faiths feel as strongly, maybe more so, than I do about mine.

II: I forgive the other faiths and wipe clean the slate between us. I cannot hold a person responsible for the acts of their faith, I cannot hold a faith at fault for individual practitioners. It is not my place to convert, or otherwise alter a person's religion. I invite discussion of beliefs without judgment of those holding them.

III: I acknowledge that I may be wrong, and I have found comfort in the fact that I may be right.

This affirmation means alot to me, and if everyone else, regardless of Who they worship, would accept other people's beliefs (even tho they may disagree with them) our world would be a lot more peaceful place.

Maybe I do still have faith that in the end, truth, reason, and freedom will win out over lies, irrationality, and oppression. It may take a long time.

I would also suggest reading this site: http://www.liberalslikechrist.org ... just as a reminder that there are some Christians out there who really DO follow the teachings of Jesus (such as Judge not, lest ye be judged).

That link is awesome, thank you Synth
