I know of some websites where I have learnt a lot about Christianty and Islam and it was merely reading and doing my own research...no way where my emotions involved there.

But when you have to deal with a discussion forum, I think that is a different ball game as you are dealing with all kinds of people. So I understand why some people will rather not get involved in suchs matters. It all depends Pete as some prefer face to face where they can see the person they are dealing with. Its much easier for them in that case as they can tell how geninue that one is and where the person is coming from with the kind of questions asked when it comes to our religious beliefs.
