Hey, John Herring, tell us how your military experience has made you into a better person and a real Christian, as evidenced by your posts here.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - As usual, you come in uninformed... For instance, you don't have to be "good" to be a Christian, you only have to believe. Now go ahead and tell me where I am wrong, and while you are at it, tell us about your Lobsta' boat!  Oh, there must be more than that to being a Christian, although if it is that easy, it certainly explains many of horrors committed by "good" Christians.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Yup, as many as by "good" Muslims, or "good" Jews.. Those folks who commit horrors are only considered "good' by themselves and their followers.. Unlike "good" liberals from the looney left who are pretty much the mainstream, you know, intolerant, selfish, and lacking any real moral core.. There are lots of rules "good Jews" have to follow in order to be considered good Jews. I suspect your understanding of Christianity is suspect. I've had the privilege of some friendly discussions the last few years with some nuns and priests in academia, and in addition to exchanging pleasantries, we do discuss what a "good" Christian would say or do under various scenarios. Though I am not a Christian, I agreed completely with the nuns that there are rules for being a good Christian, and they go way beyond simply "believing." I think you are getting Catholics and Protestants confused. They are not one in the same. The other day here I mentioned the Sermon on the Mount. Following those precepts and rules probably is a good start. Depends upon your Creed. Well, if Protestants can behave anyway they want in life, so long as they "believe" Jesus is their saviour, then it is, at best, an amoral religion. I understand the Protestants engage in Christianization in Central and South America. Kinda makes one want to puke. Your nuns and priests were the first to convert the masses in Central and South America as well as Asia. Does that make you want to puke as well? *My* nuns and priests? I'm not Catholic. Ok, you anal retentive prig. The nuns and priests in academia you with which you discussed the subject of a "good" Christian. |
