I don't hate Jesus at all, Emile. I think his real message has been twisted by his followers, however. Anyone who hates or discriminates against Jews or blacks or homosexuals or non-believers, or any other group of people, or believes that women need to be dominated, or children punished severely, is not really living a Christian life, in my opinion.
I hate things and systems that hurt and damage people, not real Christians, or Jesus. In fact, for some reason there are two pictures of the Virgin Mary in our tv room at the moment. I guess my husband finds them comforting. I would never say anything about them being there.
On the other hand, he does not dominate me, and he is kind to children and animals, and leads in every true way a Christian life in its highest meaning of love, compassion, acceptance and tolerance.
Did you get a different wife, Emile? I have heard her described as a couple of different religions already, as well as an atheist, as I recall, so it is getting confusing. Say, you are not really one of those polygamous Mormons with seven wives and nineteen children, are you? |
