What happened to Christianity?

If you have ever seen the movie, "Ann of Green Gables" you may remember Ms. Cuthbert saying to Anne that she should good feelings toward their neighbor even though th neighbor has different views because that's the Christian thing to do. I've seen this in older books as well and in still going on in older members of my family.

Why does is seem that Christians seem to be forgetting that Jesus wasn't so judgmental. That he befriended the very people Christians point their fingers at and say, "You're different. You are (homosexual, a slut, a baby killer, etc.) You are going to hell."

I don't remember in the bible ANYWHERE where it was acceptable to pick on anyone for these reasons. How can someone be so judgmental and mean and still be allowed to be call themselves a Christian?

I'm not talking about all Christians here but it seems in my area and have noticed in this forum "Christians" acting this way with comments like, "Homos are gross"

I know this will probably be somewhat of a controversial topic, but I just had to say it. Anyone else have feelings like this?

 

Good point. There are really caring nonjudgmental Christians and homophobic racist Christians. JUST like there are caring nonjudgmental Atheists and homophobic/racist Atheists.

Sadfully I don't think 100% Christians have read or studied the bible fully... (hence the lack of knowledge)

If people keep being homophobic and saying it's because of their religion.. that hatred is not reflecting well on Christianity.. it's there to do good and spread love, not hate.

 

8everything i think it's you who hasn't read the bible. It clearly says homosexuality is "an abomination". Personally i think christians and homophobes are idiots, But that doesn't change what the bible says and what christians are supposed to believe.

 

We act more this way because society allows us to...societies change, and with that, the "freedom of speech" has become even more of a freedom. People are allowed to say what they want, and with the advantage of technology, now that can be broadcast all over the world.

 

The bottom line, for any person, is whether or nt you have a relationship with Christ. That's the only thing that matters in the end.

 

I grew out of the "invisible friend" thing a long time ago.

 

LOL

 

About the time you started defending islam and terrorists?

 

Why shouldn't i defend Islam? Put your foot in it there a bit didn't you, Ya dumb bigot. Don't you have a clan meet to get too?

 

What I personally believe is that the media has changed people to be less religous just so the spending power increases and the economy increases as well. End of topic, personally for me.

 

Thanks for proving my point. How's that jihad training coming along?

 

Yeah, a lot of Christians that I knew only seemed to be Christian on Sunday.

Especially in back in high school where the whole 'ghetto' thing was popular. Kids would be harassing each other all the time - hating other people for stupid reasons, guys would have all their bitchez n ho's, but on Sunday everyone was Christian.

Not ALL of them, but most of them that I knew.

 

I asked a question. Why shouldn't i defend islam? What have they done?

 

You tell me? I was admiring your double standard of "invisible friend."

Apparently you approve of all they do including the recent attacks on your country.

I asked a question. How's that jihad training coming along?

I also asked another question: What other terrorist groups do you support?

Feeling frisky today? I am

 

So because i respect the rights of people i have to automatically believe in their god? Why shouldn't i defend Islam? it's a simple question.

now i know you are going to revert back to making nonsensical unfounded claims and refusing to answer thew question, but I'll ask it anyway just so you can dig a deeper hole for yourself and we can all watch you flounder in embarrassment for saying such a stupid remark.

 

Did I miss a post about respect? Or are you trying to twist out of it?

I asked a question. How's that jihad training coming along?

I'm ignoring your questions because they have no relevance and you are simply repeating them, Like you do in every thread, because you sense the inevitable owning you are about to receive for insinuating that by defending Islam someone is doing something wrong.

I will ask again, Either answer it or stop posting, Why shouldn't i defend Islam? You brought it up, So step up and clarify what you meant and explain why defending Islam is the wrong thing to do. Or you could of course admit that you put your foot in your mouth and said said something ignorant and bigoted, At which point i would expect you to retract the statement and keep quiet.

 

hey guys look at this verse, so the bible said that there is a pure religion if there is a pure religion there are also not pure religion. so we have to find the pure religion.

James 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

 

Good! I'm truly flattered, I want you to run away from them

I want you to avoid answering the tough questions that you are ashamed of, and I want you to keep asking the same questions I've already addressed.

But most importantly, I want you to continue to expose yourself for a bigotted terrorist supporter. To that end, you are doing a marvelous job!

 

Sounds about right to me.

I'm sure they went to a mega church as well, one that gave out free soda and pop corn for the rock concert.
