Ahem...I'm glad you said 'some' and not 'all'...I'd certainly never say that all Christians were *long string of expletives* just as I'd never be ignorant enough to say that all Muslims were fanatical terrorists, despite the fact that the most ignorant and closed-minded people I've ever encountered, have been either very devout, or born again Christians. However, I put that down to failings in them as individuals, and do not judge the rest of the group by the shortcomings of a few.

Very true, there's always some bozo who makes the rest of us look BAD because they don't use their head. :-(
That's why it's extremely important that wisdom and love be in the mix, it's great to be passionate but NOT great to be UNFOCUSED with it. So if a person is either BEING ignorant or acting such, they'er probably not applying the knowledge they were suppossed to have sought and defiantly not using some wisdom.
For the record, I'm a hard core born again christian. (Booyah);-) But I'm positive you guys see I act a wee bit differantly then the 'fire from the hip without looking' variety. I've Great passion but it's tempered with wisdom, knowledge, understanding and most importantly love

Alsan fighting Voldimort. Eeek, that'd get ugly REAL fast. Aslan would have 'em for lunch.

I'm not an HP fan, but I refuse to condem those who DO like Harry Potter. (I did read a few of the books and see the movies just tos ee what the hubbub was about.Ya know playing Quidditch takes some serious athletisim and cordination. Looks fun. ) My night blindness and lacl of 3d depth perception makes viewing scenes with dark lighting really difficult. The Harrison Ford movie from the 80's I consistantly sleep through.(Can't see it I sleep.<snicker>)
