Kevin Smith is a Christian. Take a look at his movies.

oh, I see, the actions of my fellow Christians are my standard, not scripture?!

look, I defend what is written in scripture; not the arguments of men
Kevin Smith is a Christian. Take a look at his movies.

Timothy McVeigh was a Christian right? In case you forgot, he was responsible for blowing up a federal building, killing nearly two hundred people. Does that make it acceptable by Christian standards?

Gotta agree with these two - the actions of people who claim to be members of a religion are not necessarily the standard by which that religion judges what is sinful/morally wrong. In the case of Christianity, as jmfcst points out, the Bible sets the standards.

that blurb doesn't really contradict what BRTD said

I didn't notice the part where he claimed to be an agnostic but at the same time, he professes a faith in "a God."

Whatever the case, BRTD is a total moron for using the example of behavior of a Christian as justification for such behavior.

Not the first time. Don't you remember my "It's OK to go to strip clubs, because I've seen strippers wearing crosses." post?

Yeah, and we also remember calling you a moron that time as well.
