71. It's very easy for you to say we need to "resolve" the issue, but
I don't see any workable way for that to happen. The denominations and personalities that fall under the very broad umbrella of "Christian" have been divided for hundreds of years.

Fundies do often hate us. They think we aren't "real" Christians. They aren't going to listen to what I say any more than they would listen to you what you say. Liberal Christians and those who do not accept the Bible as inerrant and literal are no better than heathens, atheists, or followers of what they deem to be "false" religions. Many consider us blasphemers.

Liberal Christians tend to be a live and let live sort - our beliefs are personal to us and we don't feel we have the right to judge the paths others take in their own lives. We, unlike the fundies, don't believe we "own" Christ.
