Neo, I am not a Christian, but I do know that when you take religious documentation out of the context of the entire document, you do the religion in question a huge disservice. By concentrating on every little instruction, you lose the message of the entirety of the document. After all, I could easily go passage for passage with you, posting passages that instruct peace, love and understanding. Passages which you has intentionally ignored because you appear to have an anti-Christian/religion agenda.

Some of the most religious Christian sects in the country are Mormons, Jehova's Witnesses and Amish, and they all expressly teach non-violence. And I highly doubt that even the Bible beating baptists in the south would go along with dashing babies on rocks, considering they are vehemently against abortion and euthanasia. These groups have gotten passed the passages that you posted to see the value of the document in its entirety. Why can't you?

I actually think that Canyarion has shown a lot of restraint and compassion by not responding to your attack on his religion, and I believe that is a true reflection of his religious teachings, unlike the carefully selected passages you posted.
