I agree. And, you'd think if this loving character, jesus, was up in heaven watching this happen in his name, he'd try to correct it in some way, or make it known that this type of behavior is incorrect, and leads to hell. You'd see many people get their act together real quick, but I guess he doesn't care very much.
