A lot of you know how vicious I can be when arguing with religious people here. But at the same time I have two wonderful Christian parents. I have no problem with them because they are not judgmental hypocrites. they are wonderful giving people who do lots of great things for all sorts of people in need. They don't agree with abortion, living together out of wedlock, or gay marriage, but they don't shun or discriminate against people who do those things.
And I think there are more people out there that are like that than many of us realize. the thing is that since these people are not publicly fighting this type of stuff you rarely see then on TV or on message boards. Unfortunately the judgmental hypocrites are the most vocal and visible.
My parents know that I drink. They don't approve, but they don't shun me over it. But at the same time I respect their beliefs and don't drink when I am at there home. I lived with my wife a while before we got married. Again my parents disapproved but they didn't shun me, but when Rachel and I stayed at their house we did not sleep in the same bed.
