Dear
guno and
Matthew
I find as much rejection and denial coming from the left.
Example: Look at the scope of experiences and even the wealth of knowledge
being CENSORED politically by the left:
A. experiences of people who were healed of abuse and changed orientation back to heterosexual
Voice of the Voiceless
Former Lesbian to President Obama: Why Won't You Listen to Voices of Ex-Homosexuals Jesus Set Free?
So if you are going to cite "ExChristians"
why aren't you citing "EX GAYS"
NOTE: Even the wife of liberal NY Mayor Blasio has her story
on meeting him as the love of her life and describing them as a traditional married couple
(after publishing a book as a lesbian):
De Blasio’s wife Chirlane McCray talks about lesbian past
B. research on successful and effective methods of Spiritual Healing,
as taught and practiced by many Christian denominations, in curing
Schizophrenia, cancer, drug abuse and addiction, and even criminal illness in the case of Son of Sam:
Healing is Yours. Alternative Medicine Healing Ministry.
http://www.christianhealingmin.org
AriseandShine.org
We are talking about LIFE SAVING Methods, healing that could have prevented MURDERS such as in the case of Andrea Yates killing her kids "because she was obsessed with voices in her head" (<-- ie the kind that have been REMOVED and CURED using these spiritual healing methods as Scott Peck used to cure two Schizophrenic patients similar to Andrea Yates. See Peck's Book "Glimpses of the Devil" that explains how this changed his mind as a doctor)
These healing methods save people from drug addictions, sexual abuse, cancer and other disorders.
So when YOU spread dangerously wrong information that Christianity and these methods are false and to be avoided, YOU are like teaching people to avoid doctors who can cure cancer!
Because YOU can't tell the difference between quacks and real doctors, you are saying all medicine is false and needs to be avoided. That's what you are doing when you assume and teach false things about Christianity, just because you don't know the difference yourselves?
Who is teaching ignorance again?
========================
Matthew and
guno it's not just left and right, Christian and nonchristian.
Any group I know that has been pushed to bullying or defensiveness,
attacking or responding to attacks, gets stuck in this habit of
"only listening to arguments that back their agenda, and discrediting whatever doesn't"
Welcome to the human race!
These are the selfish people Christianity warns us about,
ie ALL of humanity ends up playing tribal war and bullying games
to dominate the pack and play pecking order politics.
EVERYONE I know is biased this way,
and we ALL have to "check and balance" each other
so we don't leave things out for convenience.
That's why we're here. That's why we need diversity and inclusion
so we can help each other "remove the beam from our own eyes
before helping our neighbors remove a splinter"
^ guno do you remember this scripture that teaches
Followers NOT to be blinded by bias? It's included several
times, repeated in each of the gospels by different witnesses:
DO NOT JUDGE / MATTHEW 7:5
Do Not Judge
…4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while there is still a beam in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite! First take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
^ THIS IS WHAT CHRISTIANITY TEACHES ^
Not ignorance, but to make sure you correct your own faults first, ie self awareness and understanding of truth
These hateful little pagans are so sad.
