I think there is a big difference here. Bloggers usually have conversations with their audience. Preachers just broadcast their own predjudices without any serious effort to defend them.

Oh yes, and bloggers don't usually get confused into thinking they are talking on behalf of God.

I think that we have to make it very clear that the left is not attacking religion, we are attacking the frauds who hide behind religions they simply do not respect.

The right make no objection when people point out that Bin Laden's interpretation of Islam is rejected by the vast majoroity of muslims. It seems fair to point out that the vast majority of Christians reject the bigotry of Pat Robertson and Jerry Fallwell.

Perhaps a better way to make this clear is to refer to the pseudo-christian right. Those who worship Mammon should not be confused with Christians.

What people are objecting to is the fact that a faction of pseudo-christians are attempting to impose their own bigottries and predjudices as law and are using religion as an excuse.
