Good Christians

RE: Good Christians
I saw this on the news this morning:

"SAN ANTONIO - Catholic Charities, the city’s largest and oldest refugee agency, has been forced to slash $3 million from its budget, lay off eight of its staff members and leave 40 vacancies unfilled.

Antonio Fernandez, president of Catholic Charities, said he’s had to “drastically reduce” its refugee program as a result of the President Donald Trump’s initial travel ban and now the revised version that excludes Iraq, Iraqi interpreters and legal residents."

"He said yet last year, Catholic Charities help resettle 1,900 people from Syria, Libya, Iran, Afghanistan, Nepal, Congo and Cuba as well providing shelter for Central American women and children awaiting asylum."

Here's a video:

Yeah - lots of silly shit in Matty 10.  How about this one.

Quote:37 “Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me.


Makes jesus look like a dick.

There are plenty of threads on this forum to talk shit about Christians/Christianity. I'm sure no one would object if you even wanted to start yet another one. Why not take your attacks to one of those? This particular thread is supposed to be a positive one for a change, in honor of those who do good in the name of their faith.  Heart
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
