There Are Christians...
...and then there are those that claim the name, but about whom I have my doubts, and those that just think they know what it means to be a Christian. Check this out, just from yesterday
But what really cracks me up is we have one Christian leader dissing another over his stance on homosexuality, and yet the lefties feel they can shove us all in a box, and then mislabel it to boot. And that is truly bothersome. Why do they simply denounce us, when they could be trying to convince us? Why decry instead of dialogue?
I'm pretty certain it's because they know we'll win.
- Al Mohler lets us know that the leader of the United Church Of Christ has announced his support for same-sex marriage.
- Christians are declared a "hate group".
- and this, well this speaks for itself:
There are, however, a few issues I'd like to raise. The first is that while American fundamentalists have not called for the deaths of homosexuals lately, they still preach the gospel of gays burning in everlasting hell for their sinful earthly desires. And given that these preachers consider life after the Rapture (not to mention before birth) more important than life on Earth, isn't their message of fear and loathing analogous to their Muslim counterparts in its reflection of what they think the ultimate fate of gay people should be?First of all, most Christians believe that pretty much anyone without the redemption of Christ will be "burning in everlasting hell for their sinful earthly desires." -- So gays are hardly unique in terms of that particular belief. There simply is no bigotry here -- so much for the "hate group" accusation.
