From what I have seen with talking with others is that it is the people out there at UT who are screaming TURN OR BURN, and stuff of that sort that turns them off of Christianity. However, I agree with you in that admitting defeat of your religious views just to get away from a disagreement is wrong and weak. Thanks Pinkner. See ya at Crossroads in the fall.

There is such an increasing intolerance for the foundational truth that built this country...it is sad and sickening that in the name of "tolerance", that people are becoming intolerant for the things of God! Sigh...I know...this does NOT surprise God in any way. Seeing all these Coexist stickers made me think of a bumper sticker that I would love to see on my car: ""When we offend everybody, we've declared truth without grace. When we offend nobody, we've watered down truth in the name of grace." ~ Randy Alcorn ~ I am so glad that I am not alone on this one!
