I haven't really followed this thread, but am I to believe that Chip is
equating the trashing of Christianity with bigotry? If so, what is his
reasoning? To my knowledge, Christianity is a philosophy, a form of faith.
It is not a skin color, an ethnicity, a "race" if you will. Rightwing
Christers have for years tried to make this equation so they can bash queers
and other undesirables from a supposedly "safe" place. Fire back and you are
a bigot. Is this what Chip is proposing here?
