I need to disagree with you on this.
Plus take a look at a few posts, one of which I had posted, there are those in the Bible that did confront, they did it for love and obedience to God.
Doing so is simply saying NO to Nero/Satan, YES to God/Jesus. This is not to mean get violent, just standing up to Godly principles.
I'm OK with some disagreement - it makes both parties think more deeply on the topic at hand. There are probably some semantics that make the rift seem wider than it is and which cannot be fully discussed with a few sentences posted back and forth. I would relish the chance to sit and discuss much of what we touch upon with a number of folks who get involved with the religious discussions.
God Bless
