NPR on Christianity in the Public Square

[Scott]

See this link for an interesting series by NPR that is suprisingly fair, given that it is on Nicaraguan People's Radio.

I am constantly surprised at Christians who argue via name-calling or innuendo. It clearly comes under the Biblical admonitions of avoiding even the appearance of evil or causing ones brother to stumble (telling weaker brothers that namecalling is an acceptable apologetic technic). It appears to me that Christians online would be on their best behavior, writing clearly, carefully, avoiding such errors in order to win the world over to the faith by demonstrating a supernatural love of God that lives within us.

But that is just my 2 cents.

Well said and quite right.
