By saying this, I do not intend to offend anyone. This is my belief and I just thought I'd share it with you, the reader.
I guess you have to look at it from their, no our, perspective. We believe that certain things are gonna happen, like Armaggeddon, the rapture and etc. We believe that our way is truth. Some of these people are only fighting for what they think is right. They are trying to create an environment that they feel is safe and righteous. Isn't that their duty to their faith?
Besides, christianity isn't the only faith with extremists. Im sure there are jewish, catholic and atheist extremists too. The way christians are depicted here, you'd think that everyone else in the world is normal and christians are the ones off their rockers. But let me better explain my stand on the topic. There were two quotes here that I may have agreed with. When you commit a crime, you're guilty. The bible is the infallible word of the living God. However, I don't agree with white supremacy. Not all terrorists are muslims. Everyone has the right to worship in their own religion. I don't protest the Ellen Degeneres show and I don't picket outside Ozzfest. I guess what I'm trying to say here is that I don't agree with most of the things displayed here, but I don't believe most of the things here depict true christianity (which many people will probably believe).
BTW, I noticed that many of these quotes were uncited. Some were explained but where were all these quotes taken? For all we know half (or all) of this could have been exagerated, poorly ellipsed, or just plain "made up". I would have liked to see where all this information came from. |
