Yet another sickening display of the adulteration of 'christ's love', seen above.
Why is it so easy for not only people to hide hate behind love, but also be 'overlooked' for hating when they should be loving?
For discussion:
Why do you think a loving god allows for such hatred to be fostered within his name?
And why do so many people seem to 'overlook' the hate that spews from churches?

Post #2Righteous anger is permissible as sorowfully torturing and burning people for the good of their souls...or in the interests of the Church anyway..is reason never to allow religion temporal power, as if religion -based punishments in Muslim countries wasn't warning enough. Didn't God shake his head (or whatever He has) in regret, surveying the drowned populace - but not to the extent of putting it magically back the way it was and trying to find another way of doing it. Nah...let the regrettable Global slaughter stand. And if God can order the Amalekites dealt with in a way that would have had the Einsatzgruppen shaking their heads in admiration, who are we to doubt and question even if He orders that His Book shall say he is perfect, loving and Merciful.
And if the Prophecies are a bombing back to the stone age with some biological weaponry to suit all tastes, doesn't God know what's best? At least for Him

Post #3Taking the topic in another direction, the Hate behind 'Love' is only too evident here.

Post #4Can't help it...we have to have pt 2. I will say that I see a number of these as mere Trolls and not doing it out of a misplaced sense of doing God's Work.

Post #6Presuming, as you do here, that god could disallow it, why do you think he does not, but prefers to allow it? Could it be that god approves churches flying Black Lives Matter and Gay Pride flags, and hates conservative Christians? Of course it could! When one thinks about it, what could be more reasonable than to support all his creatures as he has made them, and hate those who do not.1213 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 09, 2021 12:30 pmDo you mean, why God allows church to fly Black Lives Matter and Pride flags?

Post #7What?!?! Loving blacks and gays?!?!

Seriously, at one time I wondered why this type of thing would happen. Then I met more and more christians. Then I knew why. I kicked off the shackles of christianity and moved on to better things.
Have a great, potentially godless, day!

Post #8Now I've heard everything! Flying flags in support of oppressed human beings is hateful towards God.

George Orwell:: “The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those who speak it.”
Voltaire: "Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities."
Gender ideology is anti-science, anti truth.

Post #9Aren't you supposed to wrap that in more of a dog whistle rather than being so blunt about it?
