Mr Jaskilka:  You make a very good point......no single person represents the "view" of Christianity.  I know Christians who are extremely progressive regarding social issues,  I know others who are extremely, and rigidly, conservative.  I know pro-choice and "pro-life" Christians..and, the same is true for virtually every social issue.  I think the real key is a simple response when someone asserts they "speak for Christians":  "excuse me, sir/madam, you do NOT speak for anyone other than yourself and to assert you do is presumptuous".... Such a response would likely shorten the conversation.  Regards, Gary Crum
