So yeah, thanks for helping me spread the word guys!

Well, as one Dutch rabbi said, 'that's interesting'.
Maybe its heretical to laugh at comments that are made too, but i appreciate what you do mike. Between you, Brian, Tony and others being abused, you are in good company.
Just keep your head and heart about you. I pray for you and your wife: protection and provision...

So true, and I say this as someone who sincerely tries to bend over backwards to understand people who disagree with me.
On a related note, I hope you didn't find my questions on "freindly athiest" to be too aggressively confrontational. The Emerging Christian viewpoint is an interesting and unfamiliar one (different from a lot of Christians I've talked to), so naturally I'm curious on a lot of points.

That does take an awful lot of work, reading books that are cited, asking questions, asking questions again when no answer is forthcoming, asking questions yet again when they are still not answered.
Very hard work.
But if you are patient enough, you will be rewarded when the other person does eventually explain what he believes and why.
All I can say is, keep up the good work and always remember that there's no shame in "heresy." :)
