Interesting that the name-calling is coming mostly from those with the least to say about the subject in the first place. Did it ever occur to those of you who are offended that Armor might actually be trying to see another POV? I'd be interested in that conversation, the vitriol is completely unnecessary.

Also interesting to see once again the great American pastime of arguing a position by pointing to exceptions. Narrow minded Bible thumpers don't make up the mainstream of conservatives any more than mindless zealots make up the mainstream of liberals (as youbet pointed out). What does that add to the discussion?
