Lynn, many times on this list I have read your statements about "Christians 
trying to wipe out anyone who isn't Christian". I believe your are off base 
with you views. You have every right to express them just as I have the same 
right to express my opinion and my views. 
When Hurricanes hit our Cities along the Gulf Coast Churches quickly unite to 
bring aid, serve meals and clothing by the truck loads. Churches extend their 
helping hands more quickly and more effectively that local, state and federal 
agencies. In my community alone many truck loads of aid was organized and 
sent by Churches of various Christian Beliefs. Our local Churches send 
medical volunteers annually to Mexico and Costa Rico. Carpenters For Christ 
groups spend 1 week or their vacation and personal time each year helping 
where they are needed. The message of my lord Jesus Christ was love, 
forgiveness and service not "to wipe out anyone who isn't Christian". You may 
have us confused with another religion.
I know we were placed on this earth to make a choice. Yes, we all make that 
decision to serve God or ourselves.
