There are countless companies and organizations whose founders (or administrators) are Christian (some even uber right-wing). Domino's Pizza, Wal-Mart, Taco Bell, and so on and so on.
There is really no way to walk through life without, at multiple moments each day, using a product or supporting a company that isn't in some way connected to political or religious leanings. So, unless those leanings equate to substantial (a.k.a: millions) dollar amounts towards things I morally disagree with - it's just something I've come to accept...and work towards being mindful of.

Oh Wahine... you bad bad girl...
And it would be too funny if BikeJournal's Christian origins were fundementalist... sorry, wicked sense of humour.
Seriously though, it never comes across as Christian... just as a bunch of enthusiastic cyclists. There have been a few interesting spiritual discussions, but none that resort to religious diatribe. I think the members are too diverse.
Raven tries to suppress a giggle as she re-reads what she has just written... members... BJ... too much... teeheehee...
