In reply to the discussion: There IS a War on Christianity [View all]Baconator
(1,459 posts)There isn't a Christian living on earth or in the history of mankind who has ever lived up to every Christian value.
It's physically impossible and how is it hypocritical? All of those wackadoodles can find a biblical justification for every one of their actions.
Just like you can...
Your personal interpretation of what makes a 'good Christian' is love and harmony etc...
Ted Cruz's personal interpretation of what makes a 'good Christian' is dominionism and theocracy.
There's a million plus other interpretations and they all come from the same dogma. Pretending that all of that other 'icky' stuff doesn't exist or apply because you're the one who knows what a 'real Christian' looks like is the height of arrogance.
Their interpretation of bronze age musings is just as valid as yours.
All of those evil fucks I listed above feel absolutely 100% as certain and justified in their beliefs and actions as you do.
I say again, why do you need it in the first place? Is empathy not enough of a reason to not be evil?
