Pauline Christianity, Coptic, Greek Orthodox, whatever, have not survived well enough to even be noted as Christian. Way to make a blanket statement. Some of the most intelligent people I know are Christians. Some of the dumbest I know are atheists. No one is jamming faith down your throat here, yet you can't resist any opportunity to bash these people. In what way are you NOT the asshole in this situation? Um, if you read what I said, anyone is perfectly capable of being intelligent and Christian, just not that their intelligence is defined by their Christianity. And just to be completely honest, aside from a rational discussion, I have no problem being an asshole to any Christian, ever. If you'd personally like to absolve hundreds of years of poor leadership, cultural destruction, and shoddy historical research, please do so. If not, don't judge, because growing up in America means growing up in a Christian society, and to be unhappy with the many mishaps and judgments I've had to deal with being a fervent anti-Christian, it is impossible to be wholly objective and clear.
