I'm Fine With God, It's Christians I Can't Stand
Getting Past the Religious Garbage in the Search for Spiritual Truth

Bruce Bickel & Stan Jantz

This book is excellent. Everyone will relate to something in it.

These two authors (They've co-authored quite a few books, over 60) have a couple of web sites that go along with this book:

The first chapter of the book is titled
I'm Fine With God But Cant's Stand Christians Who Impose Their Morality On Others

From page 21:

The Bible is just as clear about God's hatred of lying and gossiping as it is about God's stance on divorce. But Christians didn't discriminate against gossips (probably because it was a taint that the majority of them shared). Divorced people constituted a much smaller minority (1960's) so they were easy targets.

I like that excerpt, Daniel, because it's so incredibly true. Sin is sin is sin and we're all sinners, no better than the next sinner. Yet so many Christians like to point to particular sins in others while ignoring others.
