Dealing With Christians Using The Bible Against The LGTBQ+

At the end of the video the Reverend says our only job is to love god  by loving others.  The only question is … how much will you love.   Good thoughts in this video.  Had the church been like this when I was a teen, had the church been inclusive like this when I was a little boy being molested by the Pastor I would have stayed in the faith, in the church.  I might not have believed in the magic parts of the bible and I might have quibbled over the facts, but I would have stayed for the community. The environment of people who enjoyed each other’s company and loved the comradery of fellowship.  Sadly the churches I saw as a child, as a teen, and as an adult lost people because rather than love, they clung to hate.  The joy of feeling better than some other group, of being able to look down on them, to revel in negative emotions meant more to them than hugging those different that maybe they did not understand.  They set themselves up as god judging others.  Not as a loving flock, but as deciders over who was worthy to be in the flock.  They were not the sheep, they wanted to be the Sheppard.  Hugs

Let’s talk about Texas, a rose by any other name, and Bibles…

Comment: “Do We Follow Jesus Or The Bible?”

What I like about this video is he uses the bibles own words against the followers of the bible’s vengeful angry god who worship the bible instead of following the teachings of Jesus.  The bible is a story of a people looking for god, finding god, running away from god, disobeying god, and returning to god.   It is not a thing to worship as even the bible says don’t worship the book.  Instead the Christians follow Jesus and his teachings.  How many Christians today such as Nancy Mace should really call themselves Biblians because they follow a collection of stories about the people instead of the New Testament of the Jesus.   Hugs

When We Can’t Tell The Difference Between Truth And Lies…

This is an incredible video on lies and truth, not because he tells us to call out the lies, but look to the real serious needs below the lies.   I finally after several hours of fighting got the finial very large big program installed on my main computer.   Hugs.
