Hi Shannon,

You need to investigate modifiers, Shannon... that's where your English failed
you. Badly.

You are being deliberately obtuse.  It's obvious you are stuck on not seeing
things for what they are.  I know he didn't mention those events in history, he
didn't NEED to.  It's obvious to anyone who knows the facts of those events
that Bjorn would label them the same way.. "people hiding behind their god",
and that he hates those who would do such things. _ Any_ human being would
(should) feel the same way.

Making such a big point in calling yourself a Christian while you write things
such as your wrote on your page regarding this discussion, (that famous 2nd
pararaph), is "hiding behind your god".  It's hiding behind your god because
you insist that no one should question your motives, after all "You are a
Christion!" <geez>

You want no one to question your "interpretation" of this discussion. Now do
you get it?

I think you are making this much bigger than Bjorn ever did.

I haven't seen him do that at all. He doesn't label Christians as fanatics, he
does though call you one since you refuse to admit your mistake and have
blasted him publically on your page.

That page SURE sticks out pretty badly.

Is that what this is about?  Bjorn Felten may have said negative things about
those who are in our nation's service (and more), but that is not _this_ Bjorn,
and it has nothing to do with Bjorn's statement that you misrepresented on your
home page.

Again, this has nothing to do with what you posted on your page.

You are happy to lump Bjorn in with all the negativity you feel in this echo,
and that's sad.

Take care,
Janis
