Are you suggesting that deceit can advance Christianity? I hope not! Bradlaugh 18:29, 1 January 2008 (EST)

No. But thank you for pointing out how badly worded that was. Hope it is better now. Godspeed ArthurDent 18:33, 1 January 2008 (EST)

Reversion explained

Evangelical Christians do not censor others, in contrast to the censorship demanded by evangelical atheists.--Aschlafly 13:06, 6 January 2008 (EST)

Whether atheists ask for any censorship is a different fact altogether. There was no mention of censorship in the definition any way. This is ideological suppression. --JBuscombe 13:09, 6 January 2008 (EST)

Undoing citation needs

Those statements need citation. Many atheists have superior knowledge of bible compared to Christians. Also Christianity and democracy are not related. Christianity has been traditionally imperialistic. --JBuscombe 14:05, 6 January 2008 (EST)

Perhaps some atheists do have good knowledge of the Bible. But on average, evangelicals spend more time reading and studying it, and thus knowing it, than other groups, including atheists. Poll the atheists here and see when the last time they read or heard passages in the Bible was. It won't be as recent as when evangelicals have.

Your second point is absurd. Even atheists and liberals admit that democracy is intrinsically related, both historically and logically, to Protestant Christianity.--Aschlafly 14:18, 6 January 2008 (EST)

Further, democracy and Christianity have been intrinsically related for all of American history; "as He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free, while God is marching on..."-MexMax 14:20, 6 January 2008 (EST)
