12. What would Jesus Do, you dipwad. Did he punch people as hard as he could when they didn't listen?

It amazes me how some people dare call themselves Christians when they do exactly the opposite that Christ would do in similar situations - situations that have been well written about. In detail. What is the term given to those who do the opposite of Christ again? That's what this Pastor should be labeled as.
