"We need the loudest and most opinionated voices among us to not be the ones..."
Aren't the loudest voices always the ones that represent any group? Look at religion... most religious folks do not agree with hate-mongering fundamentalists or crazed wild-eyed apocalyptic preachers, but look who gets on TV.
- moxiemk1 16y agoThat's exactly why we need other people to step up and be louder for us - lest we get viewed like that.
- hugh3 16y agoIs that true? Every time I see someone preaching on TV it seems to be a kindly-looking badly-dressed dude repeating some platitudes about how love is nice. The preachers who get on TV are the Oprahs of the world, the ones who are best at raising money by mumbling things that everyone agrees with, rather than ones with fringe opinions. On the other hand, there are a whole lot of people who want to believe that all Christians are hate-hongering fundamentalists.

- sesqu 16y agoGood point. I'm not well versed in such TV, but it seems that the Christians who get on TV are pastors or community organizers or what have you, very nice people who you might tire of in a half hour. In contrast, the loud, obnoxious, and persistently followed loudmouths who get on TV claim to be Christians.
