It should be obvious-- to anybody who reads carefully--what I said. Specifically:   "Nobody has a monopoly on virtue". Unfortunately Mudcatters are not famous for reading carefully--to say the least.





Bill, I'm so sorry for having called you sensible. Please forgive me; I promise it won't happen again.


As you know, my recent criticism of atheists was not aimed at you-- or Amos.

But it's fascinating that you are virtually alone, among self-professed atheists, in even acknowledging that Christians have done and continue to do good.

Those who criticized the nurse so vehemently have responded with a deafening silence.

And your question about religious imperative is a red herring. My father always said: "We pay off on results".   The result of Christianity is that many good works are being done.
I want an acknowledgment--from all atheists--that therefore the world is better off with Christianity.   That's my only issue at this point.   But it's pulling teeth to get anything of the kind.
