Christianity is way too instituionalized nowadays to have any actual value left.

In my POV the only real followers of Jesus (if he existed) are gnostics. Who have been damned again and again by most of the pedophile hipocrites "leading" all the churches.

These people can feel already in their lifetime, why they'll burn in hell. Slowly. Really crispy. And till their soul is finally gone. This is the only sound conclusion in their own system.

Nobody needs such monster back again on earth anyway.

Good joke. Gnosticism runs rampant in academia. They are pulling everything down by worshiping knowledge instead of God.

What's wrong about people thinking and writing about things?

Are you retarded? Maybe a chromosome too much?

Academia is working on this one, too... you know?

Only for the elites who worship the archons, Satan, and the demiurge. They conceal it from everyone else.

They've always been revolting scum. But how is hating them going to help you any? Have pity on them.

Yes. You love everyone and hate what brings others to sin. But "love" is too brand of a word that in english is mistranslated. Killing a drugged man who wants to rape your family is also loving him, and so is using physical force when required.

You love everyone by doing to others as it would be done to you. And part of that is recognizing that love requires you to do and say often what others dont want to hear/see.

The Bible says, "Hate the sin, not the sinner" so conversely you shouldn't spare the rod and if your neighbor be deserving and willing, covet that ass.

The Bible says, "Hate the sin, not the sinner"

Where is this in the Bible?

It was told to me by a priest, though I'm not a Catholic, so I assumed it was in the Bible. Is it not? Perhaps he learned it in seminary.

Old testament.

Yes.

And it also says you shouldn't judge others.

I grew up surrounded by bible thumpers. I learned very early on they were all back stabbing scumbags.

I'm getting worried because lately it seems like a lot of formerly normal Christians and even entire churches are becoming "bible thumpers" in droves. It's not hard to see why. But getting this triggered and tribal is completely destroying the faith.

They can be some of the most un-christian persons and it's a pity that they are not expelled from the church for the damage they do.

[–]Vulptex 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

Yes, but the mainstream always makes up excuses to do the exact opposite.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

On point. Thanks.

It does not describe affective feelings for everyone else, but to look out for others. Sometimes love is tough love. Sometimes the best action doesn’t feel good.

      Seriously?

      You wanna tell me your imaginary friend is better than ALL of mine are?

      Yoda could cut off your gods balls before he even realizes they exist.

      Seriously ?

      Who has the authority to judge who is "revolting scum"? Our adversary would like that power so he could destroy all of us, because he does not love us.

      The only way for a future to exist is through love. Without love, everything would be destroyed. Without love, everything would cease to exist.

      God Himself is Love. And because God loves all of us, the adversary is prevented from destroying us. Even if the physical body dies, the soul is eternal.

      There is no future without love.

      It's a perversion perpetuated by sick individuals who demand that if you are a Christian then you should tolerate everything, including invaders raping and killing your family and taking your land. Usually they are the ones who won't give a penny to someone in need.

      The original text says "αγαπάτε αλλήλους", not "αγαπάτε τους πάντες".
