Wasn't St. Peter a "community organizer?" |
|
Didn't Jesus say he was "the Rock upon which I shall build my church?"
After Jesus' death, didn't many Apostles go on to form and organize Christian communities? Isn't that how Christianity spread?
Just sayin'.:)

2. Yes, he was, and yes, so were all of the apostles. |

The greatest community organizer of all was St. Paul. He traveled throughout the Roman world preaching to pagans. But, you know, Republicans can't be bothered with the facts. They get in the way of their ideology.:hi:

Fundies are a funny bunch. they love to use that Bible to deny things to others or to make people feel badly, but they seem to have missed a lot of it..
