You don't have to believe in the bible, but you have no right to dictate other's devotion to it. No one's forcing you to believe it, so why do you complain because they do believe? How is that in any way your business? You are PREACHING the perceived shortcomings of other's as you claim they do to you. That's intolerance. They have as much right to their opinion as you do to your's whether you like or agree with it. And as far as willingness to listen to other opinions, People in glass houses...

Not one post said ANYTHING about non-Christians until someone posted erroneously(your use of this word proves that you are the judgemental one. It proves that you are intolerant. By using that word, you are saying that one CANNOT be a good person if one does not follow your chosen belief system. How arrogant.) that you do not have to be religious to be a good person.

I posted that because of the following statements, as well as others, that were within the story that, according to you, I was not welcome to discuss.

"Tragically, the survey highlighted one disturbing fact: When it comes to parenting, there is little difference between Christians and unbelievers."

"Barna's findings paint a bleak picture"

I am a stay at home mother of three. I find it highly offensive, which is why I posted originally, that this article uses words like "tragic" and "bleak" to describe the fact that Christians' parenting is no different than mine, an unbeliever. Thanks for the label, by the way. The entire article is premised on the fact that a true Cristian is a far superior parent than someone like me. I guarantee if there was a thread discussing the assumption that Buddists were much better people than Christians, you would be offended. And perhaps you would post. And perhaps Buddists would tell you you were not welcome to say a thing, because the post was about them, not you. Get my point?

Who dismissed an entire group

The article did, by calling my parenting skills tragic.

so called conservatives who call for censorship and political correctness

So now you insult my politics, as well. So called conservatives? If you would go back and reread my posts, I never once discussed anything even close to censorship or p.c. All I said was that people like you should stop judging people like me. Most who responded were quite kind and civil. I suppose there is always one in the bunch who will prove my point for me.

only the non-Christians were attacking Christian belief

I did not attack anyone.

you have no right to dictate other's devotion to it

My words, post 39;I respect your faith, and your devotion to it
