>>>How about: "As a Christian, I am appalled that these hateful creeps claim to be my coreligionists. I denounce and disavow them. Please do not think their narrow and misguided hatred is in any way representative of Christian thought."
I think they're wrong, but I'm not going to join you in hating or mocking them. I don't think it's good in any way. And I already know you guys know it isn't representative of most people.
>>Or, you could just keep trying to pretend that liberals are hypocrites for mocking the lunacy of the religious right.
How could I call you hypocrites? I don't think you have any problem with mocking people, obviously, so how could it be hypocritical? I am wondering how you think it makes this world a better place to hate and mock. They hate, you hate back. Not effective, unless your goal is a world full of hate.
