We Can Hope He's Right....

RE: We Can Hope He's Right....
(November 4, 2014 at 11:34 pm)Parkers Tan Wrote: It'd be nice if it were so easy, but color me skeptical. 70% of Americans still claim to be Christian. Whether they go to church is not as important as how that Christian ideology influences their interactions vis voting, bigotry, xenophobia, and other issues.

But of the 70%, how many could we convict because of their actions if christianity were to be made illegal ??

As we've noted here many times many ways, it's easy to talk the talk, but when it comes time to actually do something, most USA christers start cherry picking bible verses and the hard stuff suddenly becomes a parable, or spurious, or mistranslated, or just flat out ignored.

We get a steady stream of apostates, heretics and blasphemers here trying to spread their twists and turns and gyrations of what back in the day was black and white 'Thou shall NOT . . .'


Maybe the good fight of spreading the atheist word is better supplanted by simply campaigning to get the self described christers to just get honest with themselves about their lack of faith, in faith ??
