With all the due respect due to you Nikhil, I've been debating Stu for a lot longer than you have and if you want to get into a deeply subjective discourse with him over various threads of Christianity then by all means do so. I doubt you'l get anywhere with him since he is a "true believer". The best thing to do is to look a fundies' websites and see for yourselves. Also, since you have stated that you don't come from a white, European background it might make sense to you that fusing pre-Enlightenment thinking with critiques of contemporary capitalism. What needs to be looked at is not Christianity per se but rather the secular religion in our midst.
