- You misjudge me, Sir. I am not a Christian. I am an atheist. For me
- to tell someone that they are going to hell would be nothing less
- than silly. What I did do was attack your claim that to do so would
- be immoral.

- Merely because I am pointing out that your argument is unsubstantiated
- does not mean that I believe that gays are immoral or any such thing.
- This is not an instance of "he who is not for us is against us."

- In the post I was responding, to, a reference was made to my being a chemist.
