Yes like child abuse, 1 out of 5 children going to sleep hungry, 
the rape of 1 out of 4 women...
You would think that the "anti-Christ" fundementalist movement would be
concerned about these issues first, since they have the most contact

Christians know that Christ is the Word.....not the Bible....
