“Not Once After Graduating From Bryan Was I Asked To Make A Case For The Scientific Feasibility Of Miracles, But Often I Was Asked Why Christians Aren't More Like Jesus. I May Have Met One Or Two People Who Rejected Christianity Because They Had Difficulties With The Deity Of Christ, But Most Rejected Christianity Because They Thought It Means Becoming Judgmental, Narrow-minded, Intolerant, And Unkind. People Didn't Argue With Me About The Problem Of Evil; They Argued About Why Christians Aren't Doing More To Alleviate Human Suffering, Support The Poor, And Oppose Violence And War. Most Weren't Looking For A Faith That Provided All The Answers; They Were Looking For One In Which They Were Free To Ask Questions.”
