hi, your news article is from 1999, do you know if the situation changed at all? maybe we should work hard towards fellowship with other Christians so other people have no excuse for controlling our Christian heritage.

hi, an interesting topic. i think a lot of people just believe what they are brought up with and don't ask too many questions. that includes athiests plus lots of people from other religions. i don't think athiests are more closed-minded than anyone…

guys, didn't u notice GArgiriadis was being sarcastic? he has a point, though. if one person disagrees with another, that's ok, it's why we have discussion. but when lots of people start disagreeing with one person, it might get a bit intimidating f…
