(5,125 posts)It isn't just your fight.
They aren't doing my faith any justice by using it to justify their hatreds and judgemental ways.
Bible says, "Judge not lest ye be judged." "Judgement is MINE saith the Lord".
Christians are told in no uncertain terms that judging others is NOT their job.
BUT that doesn't fill the collection plate, I guess. I don't know.
AND I still think that like the MAGA is just the loudest and rudest portion of the Republican Party that is grabbing the mike and making noise all the time.... freaking their party out and causing a mass exodus from the far REICH daily the worse it gets.
The same type of thing is happening more and more in Christian communities. People of faith are standing up and saying, "THAT IS NOT ME. THAT IS NOT MY GOD YOU ARE DESCRIBING."
People who have really studied the Bible have to be pretty clear that this hatred is NOT in line with God as it has been taught in the majority of years this country has been established.
So just know, that you might not think you have any friends in the Christian community because so much crazy is coming out of the general loudspeaker, but know that faith is really a personal thing and a lot of Christians aren't out there wanting to bash a Bible over anyone else's head.
I don't hate atheists.
Not fond of Satanists, or Fascists, but it's more of a disgust with their obsession with evil and control.
Anyone who let's me be me, is fine by me to be themselves.
Why not?
