This is a poor means of communication for me, especially, as i range all over the place conversationally, voicing examples, etc., and i guess this is a bad idea. I have tried to moderate it here, but i notice most people here have the completely wrong impression about my feelings for America, for example. I make a remark about the .01% that is taken for the whole, etc. Surely my fault, but i ask that you take me more at face value, except when i don't mean it that way, which is frequent  and i will try to do the same for you.
Iow it is easy to read something someone didn't mean, and harder to read what they meant, sometimes. And sometimes we even do it gratuitously, a little on purpose to make our point. So i try not to be offended, and i don't mean to offend. ok, bye.

Sure! If you do the same and try to realize saying all muslims are lost is not something that is said solely because a person feels superior and is lacking humility. My goodness, Shazeep, lost souls need Jesus and we don't say those things to gloat, but to wake up and try to reach them.
But to say you are a hypocrite and we are all lost and in the dark, is so contrary to the word of God and what It says about following Christ. You either never saw the genuine message, or you did and were so offended you dropped the ball. I suggest it's the former.
