When I said there are too many Christians who don't care about works, I was probably wrong. When I suggested there are too many atheists who don't care about works, I was wrong. I'm sorry.

There are a lot of good Christians and good atheists who are striving to do good, and if I want them to beat a path to my door religiously I should be giving a better example.

The ex-Korn guy Brian Welch opened up a refugee home in India (http://www.headtochrist.com/india.html) He is an example to me of a Christian, though he's not Mormon I'll bet, that I should try to live up to. My biggest exampler is of course Jesus and I like the prophet of my Church who has opened a perpetual education fund and has a humongous humanitarian fund.

I will try to set a better example and recognize other people for all their contributions, be they opining on a message board or whatever. I will try to be more tolerant. Sorry for gunking up this board so much with religion when I feel I have to. I will try to limit my religious postings to less than 14% of all my postings.

An apology on a political board, WHAT IS THE INTERNET COMING TO?!

"Too many" is pretty unspecific, so I don't think that you were necessarily wrong if those were your words. There are a lot of Christians of a few denominations who believe that faith is all it takes, and I'm sure there are atheists who feel similarly, though it's important to remember that the only belief inherent to atheism is that gods don't exist.
