The myth that democrats love to hate is that all republicans are devout Christians. I wouldn't assume that all democrats are all depraved sexual deviates if it wasn't for Clinton.
It's Republicans who insist they are devout Christians. They point to their religion as the reason for hating the gays. They use their religion as a weapon insisting Obama isn't "one of them".
I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.
Mohandas Gandhi
And this new thing of "every man for himself" and "let him die" is just too much. How can these people be proud of these awful views. These aren't "values". Considering what this country stands for, they are crimes.
Your misrepresentation of Christianity fails this whole thread. Besides your sweeping misquided generalizations of Republicans as a whole.
And as you've pointed out yourself, you are not a Christian. Therefore, you have no idea who Jesus Christ is yet; let alone be able to point your hypocritical finger at others. We all need to take the plank out of our eyes at one time or another.
Before I knew the Lord, I was also swayed by the propoganda of the Left like you are. I was swayed by the misguided propaganda unknowingly also and I thought, "oh the Republicans are for the rich, the Dems are for the poor, so I must be a Dem!". I voted for Clinton even, lol.
Thank the Lord through His Grace I now know Him. Thank the Lord so much He is teaching me more and more and not to listen to the lies of men. And we are all capable.
The most wisest of Christian men I know are Republicans.
They are NOT rich at ALL. One even went without an oven for a long time! One is a janitor, he just gets by. Another can't even work because of his disability, and he has no health care. He does NOT want government health care.
But then again, how can I blame you really? I was persuaded like you are also because I wasn't doing my own research. I wasn't understanding the whole scheme of things. Sure, there are oppresive people in both political parties. But in my experience, most aren't. We are just ignorant sometimes and also assuming of other people.
You're ignorant of what the truth is because you've been blinded by "world leftist propaganda".
I'm not calling you "stupid", because your not. We all can be ignorant of some things. In this case, you've been hoodwinked.
As for you personally quoting Gandhi, that is ridiculous! If you agree with Gandhi that you like our "Christ", but not us Christians, you're missing what Jesus Christ said totally!!! You're looking down your nose at others as if you are holier-than-thou and are able to tell them how "good" YOU are, whilst people (what you call Republicans) are these dirty rotten scoundrels.
For that....Here's a great parable for you that Jesus Christ said.
Luke 18
10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, ‘God, I thank You that I am not like other men—extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector.
12 I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.’
13 And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’
14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
You are being like the Pharisee above. You are so "good" right, and everyone else (these rotten Republicans) are extortioners, unjust, etc??
Also a tip which I doubt you'll consider, but I'll try. Instead of listening to Gandhi: LOOK to what Jesus Christ first, not to "men" and what they say first. As men and women, we all fail, we mess up, we are only learning and growing. Jesus Christ came to help us grow in love and save us from our own messes. He helps us grow in Grace, because His Grace tops all.
