That is something I can respect.

You defend logic and reason and yet you are so unreasonable in your passion to defend your views. You tell me that Christians should live by all of the bible, what does that even mean? Do you want us to invoke the laws of Deuteronomy and Leviticus even though we have been delivered from these laws? Do you want us to police other Christians to make sure they're following the teachings? You sound like a child, "Why can't everyone get along?" You seem to miss the fact that I can only make decisions for myself and you make decisions for yourself, meaning your desire to see all of Christendom live by the whole bible is pretty unrealistic, which in turn means that nothing a Christian says will be enough to satisfy you. You are on a quest to make us acknowledge the bloodshed in the history of the bible. To you I say: what of it?
Sorry salty...but just WHO are you ranting at??
At the OP.
"And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." Hebrews 11:6
