Reply #73: I certainly have seen it [View All]

A few months ago there was somebody who insisted on referring to God as "Invisible Cloud Being." The discussion pretty much went downhill from there.

And more recently (like, yesterday) there was a Mel Gibson thread in which somebody dismissed, with an obvious air of superiority, anybody who actually believed the Bible (or apparently any part of it). It was beside the fact that the person knew not whereof he/she spoke, and made gross generalizations.

And those kinds of things are offensive to most Christians. Particularly to the ones here who try to be tolerant and respectful of all opinions here on DU, who are generally liberal or they wouldn't be here in the first place, and who really get tired of being lumped in with the Falwells of the world.
