Yes. yes it’s you. I am not painting you with a brush. “The Media” is not making you (“Level Headed Christians™”) look bad.
Very few people are saying “all christians”. There are plenty of people who are both christian an standing against this… for example Bishop Budde who more or less called trump out to his face. An most the people who can be construed as saying that usually have some good points as to why.
It’s unsurprising christofascim crops up because Jesus himself was rather fascist. I know. you’re probably hissing at me like I just sprouted horns and a forked tongue an snake eyes, maybe a heart-spade tail, even.
But it’s true. Yeah. Jesus said “treat your neighbor as yourself”, but “neighbor” meant something different to him. It was more like “kin”, or maybe “clan”. And the law of Moses that Jesus explicitly endorsed has always made a distinction between Israelite and everybody else.
But Jesus also said the written law of moses is to remain in place until all time. And yeah. That’s the kind of legal code that expressly permits slavery, forces young women (girls, probably) who were raped to marry their rapists, commands the slaughering of ~60% of women on the nights of their wedding because god doesn’t understand biology, and stoning of disobedient children.
the peace and love stuff is reserved for the “right” people.
This you?
