Bart Ehrman May Shed Light on the Christian Response to Charleston, South Carolina

RE: Bart Ehrman May Shed Light on the Christian Response to Charleston, South Carolina
I have faith in the people's ability to compartmentalize. For most, the situation in Charleston will not call God into question. Other than happening in a church, this won't register on any theistic level for most Christians. It may be that you are giving too much credit to Christians, who largely lead unexamined lives. Give it a month, and it's business a usual.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
