I guess it depends. Rev. Joshua seems to be pretty actively inclined to stick up for the nonbelievers against the extremists... Many of us have enough clue to have caught on that those people are not doing anyone any good, and need to be encouraged to calm down.
Well thats nice of Rev. Joshua to take pity on the poor little people who aren`t affiliated with his international club of madness.

If Rev. Joshua really wants to help mankind he can start for real by throwing his bible in the dumpster. Anything short of that just helps perpetuate the problem.

Frankly, in a lot of ways, I'm more threatened by fundies than some of you are. They may think you're heathens; they call *me* a "false teacher" and a sign of the apocolypse.
LOL! You definately *are* a false teacher,but this is true about anyone who speaks of their religion as tangible,factual and historically correct.

Calling someone "a sign of the apocolypse" is just stupid,but typical of fire and brimstone fundies who often don`t even understand the meaning of the word apocolypse.

I'd say that Rev Joshua, Bible and all, is doing a lot of good for the world. More than most people...

The Bible isn't the problem. Religion isn't the problem. Intolerance is the problem, and it is *JUST* as much of a problem in you as it is in a theist who's similarly intolerant.

I'll take HelenSL over Trebaxian Vir any day. If you disagree, you're frankly a dogmatic lunatic, just as dangerous as the fundies. If you agree... religion isn't the problem, intolerance is. See?

I think the majority of people here would strongly disagree with you on this one.
I`m not intolerant of sexual preferences,race or anything else except bullshit. I`m especially intolerant of an institution built on bullshit with a prime directive to spread the bullshit all over the world.
Yes,the bullshit I speak of right now is better known as Christianity.
Sorry seebs,but it`s pure bullshit and it`s caused and perpetuates the very intolerance you claim to fight against.

I tell you what. You get all of your fellow Christians to stop spreading the "good news" and I`ll leave you alone. Let me know when you guys come to an agreement on this.

This is rich. HelenSL Vs Trabaxian Vir? Talk about a rigged contest that I can`t possibly win.
Why don`t you try asking me this question again except next time replace Trabaxian Vir with someone who`s not a total nutcase looking for attention.
Jesus seebs,there are thousands of unbelievers here to choose from,but you pick the one guy here who NOBODY agrees with.

Is this this only way you figured you`d win this one? Theists often go to extreme measures,but this is simply ridiculous.
