great video. it hurts so much as a christian to see all of the evil done by christians. the biblical quote is one of the most important in the whole bible... i cant understand how so many miss it.
So true...
Heck...even if other Christians see us as enemies, they're forgetting another important scripture. "Love your enemy." A Christian should only fight to save lives, not destroy them.
QuoteAs far as the Western world goes, Christians invented homophobia. The Romans and the Greeks before them didn't have any problems with it.
It would be more accurate to say the Jews "invented" it, but the Greeks (and likely Romans, who basically just copied the Greeks) wouldn't necessarily approve of our modern concepts of homosexuality as they don't match the concepts of "Beauty" in which the Greeks believed. Then again, they also would find our heterosexual relationships just as absurd. We're more carnal than they were.
Quotesitting in a pew every sunday doesnt make someone a christian anymore than climbing a tree makes them a squirrel
That's a good way of putting it.
