It is the nature of the “techno” industry.

The three points that you wanted to hit home in your presentation lay heavily on my heart as well! Thanks for this post.

I saw the ads all over the place. I was going to put one on my site, but did on some others.

Take a look at my site if you get bored.

I’ve been blogging two or three years and keep things very civil and deliberately open to people of different points of view. Regretfully, the only people that have ever “flamed” on my blog are evangelicals, to the point where I’ve stopped visiting such sites. It’s not that I wouldn’t still be welcoming but I’ve come to recognize the futility of inviting them.

Even when they initially appear friendly and non judgemental, I find that if I make points that they can’t counter they reliably begin to first deliberately misrepresent my statements, so that I have to go back and say “Well, no, what I actually said was… ” The next stage is thinly veiled insult and then comes the weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth.

I just haven’t found that Christians to the far right of center have the capacity to agree to disagree in a respectful manner. And I think it has to do with sin, the ego, “the flesh” – ego involvment in their own point of view – and not “religious fervor.” A lot of people need to distiguish “righteousness” from self righteousness.
