Well, I for one have never said that Christians were necessarily bad for society. I do believe that people who call themselves Christian but hate Jews, blacks and other minorities, and homosexuals are spreading hate and hurting people, and that does not seem to fit in with a Christian value system. I also think all the religious wars throughout history, which have killed millions of people, do not reflect a Christian value system, and do harm to the universe. I think Jesus would be horrified and appalled by the evils that have been committed in His name.
Frankly, after your latest remarks, Dwight, I am beginning to think my value system is more Christian than yours.I certainly don't stereotype people the way you do, or suddenly conclude that people are not who they say they are. Now THAT could be construed as contemptible, if I were not in a mellow and relaxed mood after my walk, and attempting to give you the benefit of the doubt, as a true Christian would. |
