Fair enough. But that has been the whole point of debate here all along.
Jim has argued that Christianity has had a net positive effect on human
morality, and in response I have pointed out the numerous historical cases
of attrocities committed in the name of God. Jim has responded to this by
saying that we can't count those cases because, well, these attrocities were
stopped eventually. I hardly find that a compelling argument.
This is not to say that Christianity has not helped you, or Jim, or Bill,
or numerous other people. But that doesn't mean that it's for everybody.
