That thread is full of you berating others for suggesting it's not good to believe in fake things. But you are allowed to call beliefs stupid. Why such a double standard? That's all I'm asking.

I also did not say anything about "good" Christianity and "bad" Christianity, I said good and bad people were determined by their actions, not whether they believed something true or false, which ties in to everything above.

Let's go to the tape.

20. some of them are, yes

as practiced by some, yes.

As someone else said, there are a ton of different versions of Christianity ranging from very good to very bad and everything in between.

Ouch. You DID say there were "good" and "bad" versions of Christianity. How embarrassing. No wonder you'd rather have me go sit on the bench. Too bad I won't.
