I do understand Lou. Perhaps you could ask Dr. Bob if wording the sentence differently would have been ok. For example "The man had seen the resurrection and the rider told him that anyone who had seen the dead resurrected and yet still not believed in God was a fool." Would that be ok. It would not be considered a putdown to anyone who had not seen the dead resurrected and still did not believe in God. Perhaps with an additional explanation that this only applied to this one man, and you did not mean to imply that anyone who did not believe in God was a fool?
I'm just throwing out ideas here, Lou. I still think that certain religious thought is difficult to express on the faith board, given the varying religious beliefs, including atheism that are joyfully included there. It is a difficult thing, Lou. As many have discovered when trying to share their faith on the board.
