[Vision2020] The Dougs et al.

 Chas,

His speech was smoother than butter, But his heart was war;
His words were softer than oil, Yet they were drawn swords. Ps 55:21

Keely, I hate to disagree with you, but I'm going to have to, here. I 
equate derision with contempt, and Ralph Nielsen has never been 
contemptuous of Christianity, at least not that he has displayed on 
Vision2020. Truthfully, for someone who is a disbeliever, I find 
Ralph exceedingly respectful. 
 
If we had been talking about Art Deco, I might agree (sorry to drag 
you into this, Art). I acknowledge that I am sometimes contemptuous 
of Christianity (though not necessarily of Christians), but I don't 
think that Ralph is. 
 
What do you say, Ralph? Are you contemptuous/derisive of 
Christianity, anti-theistic (which describes me), or something else 
altogether? 
 
Chas
