    I’m going to stand my ground on the matter of broad generalizations being counter productive and often tribalistic in nature.

    But your point is taken.

      I’m not disagreeing with you on that, only with the suggestion that my comment (or this post, for that matter) are a generalization towards all christians.

      The post clearly only applies to those who would use the bible as a source in their arguments, not to those who are reasonable and see it for what it is.

      My comment uses “christians” within that context - it is not a standalone piece of text. I am, (IMHO clearly) referring to the same christians the post is. I’m just going to assume it’s a misunderstanding, because I find the suggestion of me generalising while the comment is within context to be quite disingenuous.
