I was working on the information provided in assigning him the category of Bible-believing Christian. I used to be one of them, and I know that the mind set held by the majority is that this world is nothing more than a testing ground to refine the believers of the Bible god in preparation for eternity.

Based on what I have read, many of the founding fathers self-identified as theist, and their were progressive people for their times. That said, they weren't perfect, of course. And I am reminding myself that you aren't perfect either, and I am trying to get past my feelings of having been condescended to.

In all honesty, I am doing a lousy, lousy job of it.
