This is exactly my point. How people interpret things is in essence, a window to their soul. You could have easily picked other scriptural quotes. Turn the other cheek,. the meek shall inherit the earth, etc.

Yet, you chose that quote. Why? You view God and religion as a confrontation or a war. I would hazard a guess that 99% of Christians would disagree with that perception. Every member of the Christian clergy that I have ever spoken to(and I attended Depaul University, a Catholic University for two years) would disagree with that interpretation.

To the best of my knowledge, Christ preached about Love and brotherhood, and it was just not Christian brotherhood that he was talking about.

Emile, people recieve in return what they put out into the universe. You put out a message of seperatism and divisiveness. IMO,In return that is the vision you are sadly going tobe saddled with unless you change your ways to a more "Christian" viewpoint.
