No line!!
I think Bono (and some of his fans/apologists) don't believe in something called drawing a line.
And why should he?
He taught them something more than anything. He didn't support or promote them in anyway. I think sometimes you can draw too many lines, and then someday you'll find that you drew yourself in a corner and you're completely ineffective.
Yep. Being open minded, by definition, means talking to people we don't necessarily agree with. It's easy to preach about "coexist" and tolerance and compromise when everyone you talk to thinks the same way you do.
Maybe...just maybe...he's reaching people he otherwise wouldn't and they will listen. It's worked for him to great success many times before.
Of course, it's easier to just be smug and sneer at him for talking to people we don't like.
A lowpoint in Bonos career, dont know what he thought or did he thought at all when he was being interviewed by the awful site...
did they ask any controversial questions? did they bring up gay marriage for instance? to put him proper on the spot, you know
Wow, you must really be shocked to discover Bono is a believer and a Christian. Sometimes I feel that many fans are denying that fact. No matter if you are a religious person or not, you just have to accept the fact that Bono's faith means a lot to him. Without it, there would be no U2, their music is based upon their faith as Christians.
And yes, I'm sure he thinks about everything he's doing. Bono doesn't exclude anyone, he talks to everyone.
I found the interviewer awful, btw, but Bono very thoughtful. I liked what he said about faith getting in the way of love and religious people letting faith be more important than love. There's a lot more food for thought in the RTE interview he did with Gay Byrne.
Yes, because believing in creationism is the same as being a neo-nazi, pedophile and rapist!
Oh, welcome back.
What about corporal punishment, baby? What's your thoughtful and clever remark about it?

I dont think Bono share FOTF view on gay rights, abortion...
But sure it is hard to undertstand how such a good person like Bono praise a a evil god like the one in bible who have killled over 20 000 000 people...
Bono is against such things, still he look up to a evil character...
Sometimes I think he isnt that christian at all, more of a imagie...

Having Bono on their show is a major coup for a group like FOTF.
