Hello Christine, I'm curious about something--what do you think Jesus would say, and how do you think he would feel if he came back to earth right now? Specifically, how do you believe he would view people from different different Christian faiths, like the Catholics and Protestants in Northern Ireland, fighting and murdering children in his name? This is an interesting topic. I find it hard to believe that these people that are fighting all the time in Northern Ireland are really Christians. I believe this is one of the reasons non-Christians believe that Christians are full of it and hypocrites. I believe that the people in Northern Ireland most likely maintain the intellectual belief in Jesus. Contrary to popular belief (especially in large denominations like these two), intellectual belief doesn't make you a Christian. I see it as if you really BELIEVE in Jesus, why wouldn't you follow His guidance from the Bible to a tee (or the best you could). There are many bible verses to back me up like James 2:14-19. I'll post it if you like. I believe Jesus would find this problem to be the biggest problem in our society. It gives these so-called Christians the false sense of security of heaven and it tarnishes the reputation of Christ at the same time. God bless, Grant
