It's about time someone got to 'em.

This essentially sums up my view on thid. Christianity would have found it hard to progress and obtain it's dominant position (in terms of the faith held by the majority of people in the western world, at least until the 20th century) without isolating and/or crushing rival systems of 'belief'. As to the comment that this form of Christianity is intellectually and philosophically lazy, well, all I can say is that not everybody has the intelligence and is well-versed enough in philosophy to understand the deeper points of Christianity (I certainly don't). Does that mean it should simply fester on the irrelevent fringe of those capable of understanding the religion in it's entirety? No, and if some purity of thought is sacrificed in the process of getting the basic message across, then, frankly, the end justifies the means.

Given you're openly intolerant of other views and religions, this is not at all surprising coming from you, but it really shows how low you reactionary types are willing to go to 'evangelize' people.  Christ never said we should destroy the relics of old religions to make him known, and as Nathan said it really isn't necessary.

You'd make a good white supremacist, you know that?
