That's right! On December 29th, I posted an article where an Illinois columnist was screetching about how people who worship the Earth are stupid, because they worship something that killed 150,000 people with one fell swoop. I wrote a letter to the editor, which they printed, just to remind this guy that God killed every living thing with a few exceptions, yet 50% of the population of the planet still worships him.

What do you know, this guy wrote a response, and quoted me. infortunately, he missed the point.

Would someone please inform Julian that in Genesis 1:1 God created the earth? It’s His to do what He wants with it.

Well, duh, if that's what you believe. My response:

I hate to contine to make an issue out of Mr. Thomas' continued bigotry, but when he quoted me as saying

"Would someone please inform Mr. Thomas that in Genesis 7:12, God indiscriminately kills every living being of the Earth and Sky, save for Noah's family, seven of every clean animal and two of every unclean animal?"

and responded with

"Would someone please inform Julian that in Genesis 1:1 God created the earth? It’s His to do what He wants with it."

I get the impression that he either missed the point of my statement, or was doing is best to show his hypocrisy. He attacks the sanity of people who worship the Earth as a sentient being in the face of a natural disaster that killed over a hundred thousand. Nature worshippers believe that nature created the Earth. His retort to me is that since God created the Earth, he's free to kill every living being on it if he wants.

So, when a Wiccan worships the Earth, and it kills 150,000 people in one shot, it's stupid, but when a Christian worships God, and he kills all but 7 people, it's faith?

So, does that mean that people who followed Pol Pot were stupid, but Nazis had faith?

Mr. Thomas would do well to take the plank from his own eye before writing about how certain people need to wash the speck from theirs.
