okay 'consistent with its spirit'

I'm sorry, but I think your contention that if more Christians read the scripture then things would be better is naive. I contend that religious fundamentalism is only a symptom of the greater affliction and that is the tendency for people to become extreme. And it winds its way through all segments and stratifications of society...
I better stop now. I feel a manifesto coming on, lol. And I never seem to go full circle with them, heh...
