Caleb, please don't nitpick when Christians are shooting people, burning 
down houses, and professing to "love the sinner but hate the sin," when 
in fact they have a very hard time recognizing these "sinners" as people 
at all.

They don't have to say or profess hate.  It's as palpable as a kick in 
the crotch.
