(B)We don't want to take away people's freedom and right to be themselves, we just want to show them the right way. It's when they don't believe in God that they're not being themselves...they're being slaves to sin, and only with Christ can they be set free.
(C)When I want to understand other people's beliefs, I do, but when I don't, I don't. That's no different than anyone else, Christian or not.
(D)Since when is the Christian belief that nothing else matters? Explain what you mean by that.
(E)I know others are not like me. You seem to imply that all Christians are the same. We're not. We have differing beliefs, though not in the essentials, and we have different customs, cultures, colors, races, ethinicities, etc.
(F)I guess we'll always be seen as bad and wrong because we're sure of our beliefs and that we're right and we love others enough to want them to believe what we do.
(G)We never force anyone to be Christian. It's always a choice. We just want laws that protect the innocent who are too young to make choices (the unborn, the children, people that might be influenced to do wrong, etc.)
