That should scare the crap out of the rest of Christianity. For real. If you're part of the rest of Christianity, please look into this.
Just saying...

Ultimate this has to be fixed.

I think the last thing that guy had in mind was founding some religion. After all, don't organized religions separate people into different tribes? That seems to be the last thing that a decent, caring, loving person would have set out to do.

(3,750 posts)those types at Judgment. They claimed to have done mighty works in His name. He told them, "Depart from me, I never knew you." Christianity is supposed to teach love and good works....even to our enemies. Until Christians get back to basics the world with wish they would just go away. Sad.

(9,897 posts)He was NOT telling Stormy Daniel's "repent, Jesus is coming"... it was actually "no pants, Jesus I AM COMING!!!!".
Clearly an easy mistake to make...but what kind of secular judgment do you expect from people who believe in cosmic Jewish zombies in the first place? Talk about low ceiling....

(67,112 posts)many fall in the lower IQ quadrants ... HRC was so correct when she tried to single them out with a descriptive name. I've never talked to a RW'er / republican that did not sound like a damn fool. Then, there are the shysters, some very smart.

I believe that the majority of Christians know him for what he's shown us he is.
But it's that loud minority of fundamentalists and hypocrites, that have an outstanding propaganda machine, Fox "news" included, that are being heard. They're spreading shit like a farmer spreads seeds. But, in this case, those seeds are pure poison.
Those who believe in what Jesus preached should be taking the lead in calling these haters out for what they are. But they just don't have the megaphone or a propaganda machine that can match those who are selling snake oil. So, once again, a minority is calling the shots. What a travesty.

(82,849 posts)SAN DIEGO U.S. authorities arrested 32 people at a demonstration Monday that was organized by a Quaker group on the border with Mexico, authorities said. Demonstrators were calling for an end to detaining and deporting immigrants and showing support for migrants in a caravan of Central American asylum seekers.
Should I be surprised that nobody's heard of or commented on last Monday's news?
