I personally know for a fact that there are many wonderful Christians who believe that blind hated and intolerance have no place in a Christian's life. I've known many. They often gravitate to liberal communities, like the one I live in, so I've had the opportunity to get to know them. It's the Fundies who have ruined the image of Christianity in the eyes of many people both here and abroad. It's possible that the young man who was taunting me has had lots of exposure to the travesty that is the fundie world, and understandably is angered by it, but hasn't yet gotten to know Christians who see things very differently than the fundies.
