"That's not what you said earlier. It's OK IMO to change your argument, but I'm no mind reader, and it's unreasonable for you to expect me to know that you meant more than the major networks when that's what you posted."

Only because you choose to focus on part of what I said.



"So why do you think the religious wingnuts getting even MORE time would be a good thing? "

Straw man. You said that wingnuts would demand equal time. They already have more than equal time. They would have no basis for this demand.

"And I already explained why the media won't broadcast that, even if it is sensational."

You're logic for why the media won't broadcast it, it that they fundies would boycott, why don't you boycott. If Falwall and Roberts are so unrepresentative of main stream Christainity, then it must gall you that they are the lone voices of Christainity in the media. Why don't your leaders contact the media and say, "look, you guys are making us look bad and if you don't stop, we will call for boycotts?"

"You chose to ignore that argument, the same way you have ignored those religious leaders who have spoken out against the fundies.'

I didn't ignore the argument, I disagree with it. I don't ignore your leaders, I just can't hear them.
