::For the record, the offending editor and myself have discussed this subject, his repeated allegation that [[atheism]] and [[Christianity]] are polar opposites (for example the text reads: "After a closet atheist reads this critique of atheism, he is going to want to stay in the closet or convert to Christianity.") Christianity and atheism are not polar opposites, and [[User:Conservative]] has admitted as much in many private phone conversations going back to 2007. An "atheist" can convert to [[Islam]] or any one of dozens of polytheistic religions to shed the label of atheism. Belief in the existence of [[Christ]] does not bring salvation; it is [[faith]] in the saving [[grace]] of Christ that beings an eternal reward. We should not be preaching a [[false]] [[gospel]]. | ::For the record, the offending editor and myself have discussed this subject, his repeated allegation that [[atheism]] and [[Christianity]] are polar opposites (for example the text reads: "After a closet atheist reads this critique of atheism, he is going to want to stay in the closet or convert to Christianity.")
