Is it better to lie to people in church?
#31
RE: Is it better to lie to people in church?
I would have said, "Oh he's an atheist, and is just helping me set up, wanna help us set up?" I can't say I've never lied, but I'm against them, especially the knowing/intentional ones. I don't think it necessarily has to end in confrontation. I think that anticipated confrontation, helps to put everyone's defences up from the get-go and encourage confrontation. I personally, don't have time for drama like this and prefer to shoot straight.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
