| That's good news for Harry Krause, isn't it. The fear and intimidation
| you suffer at the prospect of being asked to consider a moral, ethical,
| and religious life must have you shakin in your boots
| except, of course, the s. baptists have never come close to living a
| moral ethical and religious life. the church was founded as a
| proslavery church in 1845 and has opposed freedom for anyone ever
| since...in the name of god. it's also america's leading pro-
| creationism church
| IOW it's wrong about everything.
| An absolutely backwards "bunch" of religious zealots, doing "the devil's
| work" wherever it can. That floridajim believes they're moral and
| ethical says even more about him than it does about the white southern
| baptists.
| What about the Black Southern Baptists, Harry? *There's lots of them.
| Different organization.
| nope.
| Yup.
| Nope.
| and what do you think is the objective of a Southern Baptist
| "Missionary" Hospital?
| Proselytizing.
| "Proselytizing.?"
| Surely you can do better than that, Harry.
| I'd say it never occurred to you that the Christian (Catholic and
| Protestant) *Churches main mission is to do the will of Jesus..
| *James 2:14 * Dear brothers, what's the use of saying that you have
| faith and are Christians if you aren't proving it by helping others?
| Will that kind of faith save anyone?
| James 2:15 *If you have a friend who is in need of food and
| clothing, * and you say to him, "Well, good-bye and God bless you;
| stay warm and eat hearty," and then don't give him clothes or food,
| what good does that do?
| James 2:17 So you see, it isn't enough just to have faith. You must
| also do good to prove that you have it. Faith that doesn't show itself
| by good works is no faith at all--it is dead and useless.
| James 2:20 Fool! When will you ever learn that "believing" is useless
| without doing what God wants you to? Faith that does not result in
| good deeds is not real faith.
| Just a few of the references Harry. But I don't expect you to believe
| any of it. It's not your nature.
| WTF do any of the above quotes have to do with missionary work or
| proselytizing on behalf of Christianity?
| It's an endeavor that seeks to enrich the organization more than
| spreading Jesus' teachings. *You're supposed to live and be guided by
| his spirit, not try to sell his way.
| Anyone who has a beef with unions trying to enrich their organizations
| should have a major problem with missionaries.
| Bunch of whoey.
| My favorite is the missionaries who hunted aboriginals with the aim of
| converting them just before putting them to death in order to send
| them onto Jesus.
| ****ing insanity that continues today in a somewhat benign manner.
