The less you attend church the more likly you are willing to support douch baggery

Is it just me or do people who don't know God far more likly to be overly sensitive to EVERYTHING? It's like they are over compensating for something.
Or they are trying to fill that hole in their hearts with overly 'moral' gestures and extra sensitivity to everything. to the point they are willing to suspend common sense and even the truth to try and pretend they some how are better than those who simply seek redemption..

As if our efforts here amounted to anything on their own. But there in lies the fundemental difference between 'morality' and True Righteousness. Man's morality demands that the lessor of two evils is what is to be deemed 'moral.' As if in this case being more 'moral' than one who seeks redemption makes them somehow a more 'moral' choice for salvation.

The problem? Morality is simply the lessor of two evils. Even if the lessor of two evils can be determined IT IS STILL EVIL! Therefore not righteous. (Which is the only standard God looks for in us.) Since we can not produce righteousness, we must seek it from another source. Thankfully Christ is that other source. When we accept His atonement, we trade our sin for His righteousness. So when God looks at us He see not our sin as it was nailed to the cross, but the righteousness of Christ.

This allows God to love us not for what we do, but for ourselves. In a 'morals' based economy our actions determine our relationship status with God, in a grace/attonement based economy God's love for us, and ours for Him is the currency needed for eternal life.

That (redemption) is like a Father loving a Child simple because the child is His verses a father who loves a child for what the child does or does not do. (Morality)

This grace this love is what keeps the redeemed from having to check our common sense at the door in favor for extra sensitivity to making sure we are on the side of 'morality' even if it engangers ourselves or our way of life.
