>Hilmar, I was not implying anything by that comment, nor directing it toward you. In fact, I agree with your assessment.
OK, I wasn't sure. 'Cause the results have shown that I
did open my mouth too wide, so to speak, forgetting that there actually might be people who admire the subjects of this thread (Robertson and Falwell). And the last thing I want to achieve (again, as a Bahá'í), is to foster disagreement betwixt different religions.
>There are scam artists in every walk of life. It is just so much more distastful when they crop up in the "religious" arena. I believe this is because their behavior contrasts so sharply with what true faith is supposed to bring to humanity.
Yes, exactly.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
