In reply to the discussion: There IS a War on Christianity [View all]Baconator
(1,459 posts)I repeat the point in increasingly simpler and clearer terms because it's an important one and the world will be better off once more people understand it.
Claiming a deep understanding of a mythical figures political leanings is the same bull that Republicans peddle. Jesus would have felt really strongly about blah blah blah. He would never vote Republican.... (Hint: He/Himself/His dad might though. That guy loves a good war or genocide)
It's 'holier than thou' and hypocritical. Sure is an amazing coincidence that 'true Christians' should all believe just like you do.
What are the odds?
I say again, if you want to do good in the world then just do it. Not because a religious doctrine told you to but because you want to and it's the right thing to do.
In the end, I'll let the point go once more people concede that they all pick and choose from their religious pots. It's the hypocrisy and the cognitive dissonance that needs to be addressed and then humanity can grow up and move on.
