I agree....but if simply not saying it, not preaching it, is all that can happen for now...then that's good enough for me...I have no problem with people believing it...but when they start using it to influence others to discriminate, violently or otherwise, I have a problem.
There are people who are not just omitting it tho, but coming out and saying it is wrong, such as the young people of Iran and other Islamic countries, and we really need to embrace those guys.
