[Margaret Pilkington]

You might just as well ask if the internet is a force for good, or a force for evil.

Christianity is a set of beliefs, behaviours and actions that have the potential for good.
It is human beings who distort these values for their own agenda who tarnish a faith.

A knife is a fine tool.....you can use it in peace and in harmony......but it can be used for cruelty and killing......so should we ban knives when the vast majority of people use them safely and as a valuable tool.

Faith, religion and belief are individual choices. Choices which may help some people through times and events that they would struggle to get through without this faith.

I don't consider that people who have a strong religious faith to be weak, or to be ill educated, or gullible....just that they have made a choice for themselves which may have been influenced by some event in their life.
