236. Others see only one's actions, not the 'belief' or 'faith' another might claim.

Mon Dec 23, 2013, 11:15 AM

Dec 2013

Jesus, the character Christians claim to worship, warned his followers clearly that they would face 'extra mean people' as well as actual persecution for beliving in him. Jesus orderd his followers to rejoice and be 'exceeding glad' when such oppression occured. He did not say 'whine ye about the extra mean others, stamp ye thine feet and demand for yourselves respect'. Why is it that the words of Jesus are ignored, rejected and replaced with gripes he did not sanction, with actions he forbade? Was he wrong? Is that part of your 'belief' as well, that Jesus fucked up so 'believers' have to wing it and whine endlessly when they feel slighted for their faith?
No Scriptural standing for whining about 'extra mean people'. The command was to rejoice when you meet the extra mean. But Jesus, he was a botcher of the job! Refused to attack gays, kept on saying to give money away, says don't pray in public when we want to pray in pubic, says 'call no man father' when we know Francis is the Holy Father of all humans, God is not, Francis is!!!!!!
I think most people 'of faith' are just bigots who use fancy Jesus words as weapons, they sure as fuck don't follow what Jesus told them to do.
