I do not think that "a few parishes showing off their good works" cancels out all the bad things in the history of Christianity; do you think that all those bad things cancel out the good works of local parishes?And the resulting crisis of faith would bring war, bloodshed, and anarchy. Face it, Christianity is a major part of a lot of people's lives - yanking it out from under their feet like a giant rug would, as a matter of logic, cause all of them to stumble and fall over, inevitably crashing into everyone else.Scotsman said it best: "I don't believe in God but don't feel the need to deride those that do." I used to, don't get me wrong - but eventually I realized that that was simple bigotry. I don't have to subscribe to religion, but I can live alongside it.That's what we call "tolerance."
