    Both. First they talk about it. Then they do it. What’s your beef? Do you have personal reasons to dislike Christianity, or have you just been in the echo chamber too long?

      I have no dislike of Christianity in particular, i have a problem with religion as a tool to make a distinction between us and them. I am aware I am doing it too, but I am not an institution. The point of my question, which was genuine, was to understand your comment better. It is meaner than necessary.

        You’re alright! Forgive me for being defensive. I live in the southeastern part of Pennsylvania. There are several active Christian organizations around here. They are actively supporting the community with thought and deed.

        I do not attend church, but I do participate in the effort. We pack and deliver boxes of food several times a year with an organization called JRA “Jewish Relief Agency”. We beautify public gardens in the spring and fall. We support youth with scouting programs and parades for the local athletics organizations.

        It’s not all that bad.
