There are a lot of Christians who are ignorant of these things, and/or are only casual adherents to the whole thing who focus on the not-so-reprehensible parts.
You are right! Unfortunately...idiots and assholes occupy all areas of society!
Personally, I don't let them get away with anything in my presence. I've taken an active role in cleaning-up the things I can in the church.
And unfortunately, I've met a lot of "troubled" people in the church! Its a magnet for them. Obviously! Right?
But, what do you do? Try to help them, rather than push them out. And I've witnessed a few winners in my time. But again...what do you do?
Sometimes its like having a severely retarded sibling. You carefully, take him around with you.... and hope he doesn't embarrass, or worse attack someone!
It comes with the territory. And there is nothing we can do but, be vigilant, pray and trust in God.
Quis ut Deus?
