I am glad to see how open-minded this dialogue is. We need to keep in mind that words like "evangelism" and "gospel"--literally meaning 'good news'--and they are not dirty words.

Of course there are evangelists and preachers of gospel "truth" who practice bigotry--"My truth is the only truth" they say. But this does not mean that all are bigots.

We need to keep in mind the words of Einstein:"

Quote:
The bigotry of the nonbeliever is for me nearly as funny as the bigotry of the believer.

— Albert Einstein
in Goldman, p. vii
