Well - if a Christian is one who keeps faith with Christ, then someone who kills children isn't keeping faith. Is he?

This goes back to what I wrote about the Bible though.... The problem isn't that there isn't good stuff in it, there is. The problem is that you need quite some mental wriggling to skip by the less pleasant episodes of the Bible. And when writing a holy book, you should bear in mind that it WILL in the end be interpreted by some guy, living in a basement, eating road kills, having the Bible and Guns & Ammo as only literature around.
You must have been reading my posts - I've been saying basically this for years.

PVC, afraid of heights or was it something else? How about mountainbiking?
I have quite bad balance, I favour my left side very strongly - I'm actually diagnosed with "Minimal Cerebral Palsy" - I even have the dent in the right side of my skull. Anyway - bike riding doesn't work well, I managed to get to grips with it a bit, but it's not remotely fun, I think I could ride a bike if I needed to, but I'd always rather walk.

The climbing thing - absolute terror, it's the urge to jump, or in this case undo the straps and plummet. It's difficult to explain, it's not a rational fear you can master - it's like when you're a small child and you're utterly terrified. That's not something you want to go through in a public climbing hall, especially since it only kicks in at about 8-10 feet up, then I'm frozen.
