Got to say, I love his (alleged) demeanor. Love "his" (alleged) kindness, his charity, his message. It's a great story, a bit exaggerated I believe, but aren't all myths?
I agree with Gandhi, "I love your Christ, it's your Christians I don't like, your Christians are so unlike your Christ". Agreed, not ALL, maybe not a majority, but enough. Same with Islam. So, I'll stay away from religion ... too violent, too hate filled, too "fake news", as Gandhi ... um ... insinuated.
"I love your Christ, it's your Christians I don't like, your Christians are so unlike your Christ"
I agree with this a great deal. I love God, I believe in God, I have faith in God. But I am very quickly losing faith in religion. More and more I have to find the people who show the better side to religion to regain my hope in it. It's something I've been struggling with.

My advice is just to find good people, Minty. Religion doesn't make people good (or bad). It just makes them more of what they are already.
You say..... "So, I'll stay away from religion ... too violent, too hate filled,"
It is you and the Democrat Party that supports No Restriction abortions. You even support the testing for and killing of viable Special Need's babies for merely being diverse.
You have the nerve to talk about too violent? Go witness a late term abortion that you support with your vote. Then you will see some truly violent inhumanity against our most innocent.
What violent things do Christians in America support today? You are such a judgmental hypocritical anti Christian bigot.
Take the log out of your own eye before worrying about the speck in someone else's eye.
Every time these deceptive Left wing anti Christian Bigots judge Christians as being violent, etc, and I bring up their CONSTANT hypocrisy, I actually give examples to prove my point. HENCE, THE ABORTION ISSUE!
This one issue flies in the face of every so called compassionate, tolerant, inclusive Liberal.
They support No Restriction abortions! They support the testing for and killing of even viable Special Need's babies such as the Special Olympic children.
They are total phonies and the abortion issue shows it very clearly. Their compassion stops when an innocent live impedes on their conveniences in life.
So if there are better analogies to prove my point, let me know.
You haven't checked out that mental help I recommended earlier, obviously. If you did, it hasn't helped. Too far gone I suspect. Sorry, good luck in the future.
By the way, were YOU aborted? Just wondering, you seem to have the mindset of an aborted fetus. :-(
well, I'm just trying to catch up. You've been calling me names and hurling "mindless insults" at me for over a year now. DUCK! Another one may be coming!
Problem is, whenever anyone disagrees with you it becomes an insult! If anyone gives you "facts" that don't align with yours, it's an insult. I CAN deny your facts because many of them are the "alternative" type!
Here's a fact you will likely ignore. Mental illness is NOT the biggest factor in the number of kids killed in school shootings, the biggest factor is the firepower than can be carried into the school and unleashed in a matter of minutes! Abortion takes a while and usually kills ONE. (Illegitimate ones OFTEN kill two)!
Here's another fact. YOU are prime example of just how big of a problem mental illness IS. Mental illness doesn't kill people, mentally ill people with guns do! (Hopefully, you don't have a gun.)
Yes, and people who aren't mentally ill who have guns don't kill people unless it's absolutely necessary. Mental illness is the root of all school shootings, not guns. If you can take away the mental illness it will solve the gun problem but if you take away the guns it won't solve the mental illness problem.
Mentally ill people kill others with all sorts of weapons! Idiots on the Left single out guns. Do you want to start having bombs going off all the time like in Arab nations?
Hundreds of thousands of abortions on healthy babies with healthy mothers happen every year!
Your facts are fake news! You worry about a few gun deaths while ignoring a holocaust.
The mentally ill people that kill with all sorts of weapons rarely, if EVER, kill nearly as many as the ones that kill with assault weapons before they get stopped.
Speaking of those mentally ill killers ... Can you explain, with your bountiful knowledge, why SO many "fans" and "users" of the NRA are apparently "mentally ill"?? It seems they have some sort of weakness of the mind. I mean, I have always had guns, quit the NRA back in the late 80's, and I have NO wish to attack school children, churches, concerts, etc. What happened after I left?? Radiation sickness?? LA Pierre disease?
"Hundreds of thousands of abortions on healthy babies with healthy mothers happen every year!" (Certainly not in the U.S.! YOUR FACTS ARE FAKE NEWS! And your hypocrisy is pathetic.
Crazy Al i would like for any of you Progressives to describe in detail what an assault weapon is ? Your loved government can't so please speak for them !
Yes, Jesus would say exactly that. Jesus loves our most innocent lives. He would be outraged by the holocaust of babies supported by the Democrat Party.
On Judgment day, what will you say when he asks you why you purposely helped elect people who supported No Restriction abortions?
You are not fooling God with what you support. God says he knows us in the womb! Can you grasp that fact?
Agreed. I am against guns and about equally. Am disillusioned with politics in general. I don't believe in forced death because I want to live, and do unto others, you know? Once we look past our different labels, we have the same core values. We love Yeshua, and the Bible, hate forced death, love Israel, think transgenders need therapy, not delusion, and more. We just differe on some other things. Stay cool. :)
Nonsense , Jesus would totally support abortion if God was doing it you two faced hypocrite , let me school you yet again on the book you’ve never read asin the Bible and see your aborting god in action 🙀🙀🙀
Hosea prays for God’s intervention. “Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murderer. Give them, 0 Lord: what wilt thou give? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts. . .Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit: yea though they bring forth, yet will I slay even the beloved fruit of their womb.” Clearly Hosea desires that the people of Ephraim can no longer have children. God of course obeys by making all their unborn children miscarry. Is not terminating a pregnancy unnaturally “abortion”?
Numbers 5:11-21 The description of a bizarre, brutal and abusive ritual to be performed on a wife SUSPECTED of adultery. This is considered to be an induced abortion to rid a woman of another man’s child.
Numbers 31:17 (Moses) “Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every women that hath known man by lying with him.” In other words: women that might be pregnant, which clearly is abortion for the fetus.
The fool waste our time judging God for his forms of justice while supporting the deaths of millions of innocent babies killed for absolutely no reason other than convenience.
God can do what He wantsd, buyt we have laws, because we are not absolute..................................................................................................
Like most atheists, you are closed to the Truth in Yeshua. He loves you, and so do I....................................................................
Like most Christians you are closed to the truth , how you know what a dead person thinks is beyond me , if you love me why did you previously attack and slander me ?
Yes, he rose from the dead, but he doesn't physically walk among the earth for anyone to meet him. Most biblical scholars agree that he ascended to heaven to sit at the right hand of God.
Yes, I do know that. Life for all people isn't perfect but we all find hope in different places, but as a Christian myself, I do know the struggles you refer to.
