They're losers Harry. They're the "Christian" Taliban. Tim, the trouble is, because Harry is so quick to label people and put them in a very narrow slot, he'll use those idiots as an example of all Christianity. I noticed that several here do as well. That's why I said they're the taliban of Christianity. But you're right, people look at the Westboro's and their radical lunacies, and that's how they wish to brand ALL Christians. It's really kinda sad that some people wish to be so narrow minded as to judge all by looking at the antics of a few misaligned and self- rightous klutzes. But the funny thing is that Christianity has been mocked for around 2000 years, and it's still standing well. So... I look at it like this. If people want to curse the good Christians, then that really doesn't make them any different than the Westboro's does it? iLoogy tries hard, but he isn't bright. I don't read his posts here. I don't the WBC is representative of anything but itself, and I certainly don't think it is representative of the decent side of Christianity. But I don't believe that moron minister in Texas, Robert Jeffress, who does represent a large body of those who describe themselves as Christians, is on the right track, either. Pastor denies remarks against Romney were 'bigotry' (CNN) – A megachurch pastor and supporter of Texas Gov. Rick Perry stood firm Saturday on his stance that Christians should vote against presidential hopeful Mitt Romney because of his Mormon faith. "Those of us that are evangelicals have every right to prefer and select a competent Christian over a competent non-Christian," Robert Jeffress, senior pastor of First Baptist Church Dallas, told CNN on Saturday. Jeffress stirred controversy Friday when he told reporters at the Values Voter Summit in Washington that he believes Mormonism is a "cult." - - - It isn't reasonable to "mock Christianity," as you put it, because of the WBC, but what about the actions of Jeffress, his flock, and those Baptist Christians who are as bigoted as he is? Is that sort of behavior "Christian"? -- I'll believe corporations are people when Texas executes one. |
