Also, if you notice, I didn't say it was "a crock" in my original post, which responded, just to recapitulate, to Kevin Dean's posting data on gross brutality in a Christian school in Missouri. Nor did I "trash" Christianity as Chip accused me of doing. I pointed out that the brutality in the school was only one aspect of Christianity, and referred to others, which we on the left tend to see as positive. Barely even a criticism in any of this.

Perhaps Christianity is even deeper difficulty than we realized if Chip feels compelled to defend it even against analytic description.
