In a different regard perhaps. I find it "telling" that Nye was credited with using that term in regards to Christians.

Maybe christians should get together and riot and burn buildings and murder people and demand Nye be executed. These acts of peace seem to work for members of another religion.

   Better work on your comprehension BBF.  He says the creation theory is incorrect and some Christians are doing harm by putting out misinformation..  Since neither the evolutionary model nor the creation model are empirically PROVEN, that puts them on even footing, scientifically.
  If I were to say the Darwinian concept was completely wrong, yet many people like Bill Nye are teaching this false concept...  don't you suspect Bill Nye would suggest I were propagating a falsehood?  Propogating a falsehood is a lie..is it not?
   He is doing the same with the theory which is in opposition to his favored view.

 My comprehension is reasonably good. There is a difference in " Christians Lie" as in speaking falshood and Christian Lies as in mistaken facts.
Using the words, "incorrect and missinformation" resonate differently with me than the word "Lie"

Good point! I read "incorrect" as possibly being mistaken/uninformed.
However, I read "misinformation" as a lie! :P

Let's try the old "shoe on the other foot" exercise..
  Suppose the statement was that "Darwin's theories are incorrect and some evolutionoists are doing harm by putting out misinformation".
  Would that be tantamount to calling Darwinists liars ?

If the Darwinists label their theory as a proven fact then yes. They Lie or more kindly "wishful thinking" ;)
