[Rhodes22-list] Herb's Response

Tue Nov 25 11:04:38 EST 2008

Herb,

The irony of Slim's rant is that he denigrates one set of beliefs, and
then goes on to defend his own set of beliefs (atheism). As a
practicing agnostic, I don't "have a dog in this hunt" other than
having a diverse collection of friends of all faiths.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, those who preach tolerance
the most are often the most intolerant.

Brad
