I wonder if Rev. Billy Graham regrets bearing the sperm that created Franklin Graham.
Christianity sure has a LOT of conflicting sects, and these evangeli$ts and fundamentali$ts keep on bringing on the kool-aid.
As for questioning one’s faith, either Christian or otherwise, as well as proselytizing (IMO) is the most condescending thing one can do to another as it is a form of fascism. Thus, that’s at least one major reason why there is so much wars and conflicts in the world…Last night on the Daily Show, Jon Stewart had Russ Feingold on, where they were discussing how the Republicans often wage holy wars, or pre-emptive wars, on countries like Afghanistan and Iraq where it’s like playing the board game Risk, whereas, if such wars are to be legitimately raised if say America were to invade Iran, Yemen, et al., it should be played out more like a game of Scrabble where a player must not make a move that would give his oppenent an advantage (i.e. down, across).
