Introduction

I wanted to call this blog "Wake Up Christians" but I was informed that the title was not available.  After reading the Nicholas Kristof article in the New York Times entitled "Take My Quiz on Religion" I found my new title - A Dangerous Intolerance.  I have been a fan of Mr. Kristof since he wrote "A Path Appears".  My purpose in writing this blog is to encourage a wake up call to Christians (myself included) that due to many factors we have become a very intolerant people.  And why is that?  What has caused us to see ourselves as a special class?  I see many expressions of "Christianity" that verge on down-right arrogance.  I hope this blog can help us all (people of all faith traditions or none at all) see ways we can live together in peace and harmony.
