I finally figured what's been bugging me about the last couple posts. I've been feeling like I've been missing an aspect of the issue. I think the aspect that really gets me is the level of assumption and ignorance. I generally see a lack of dialog in America about the beliefs behind the religious language. And so I often feel presumed upon by ecumenical viewpoints because I often feel told "we all agree" without my beliefs being known, and it bugs me when I'm told I agree by someone who doesn't know me. Or at least, who I don't perceive as knowing me.
How's that for shortening a long series of posts into something concise?
