What rkzenrage has a problem with are the 'religious right' kind of christian... the one who uses their faith to justify their prejudices.
We're talking jerry falwell, not the local part-time pastor.
If you wanna argue that THEY don't understand christianity or the bible, go right ahead... but people keep saying that muslims need to muzzle their fundamentalist brethren or suffer from the image blow? Same thing, here.

Even the ones that will say, 'yeah, the Bible is true', are usually keeping it in context of the particular book of the Bible, and don't often claim every verse is true and applicable in every situation.
What I've been bitching about from the gitgo, is he rages with the broad brush on every stroke, making him sound as wacky as the Christian extremists like Falwell. If someone makes a claim, attribute it to them, not to Christian.
