oh man. where do i even start?
clarke, you are full of shit. i'm not gna talk about the double standard, tyra does enough of that. but girl, how the hell can you talk about other people like that and then call yourself a Christian? how can you tell isis she's a mistake and then turn around and say God doesn't make mistakes? where is your tolerance? where is the love?
as Christians, and indeed as human beings, we are to live lives of compassion, tolerance, and above all, love. that's what being successful is about. not making money, not being famous, just loving other people and making the world a better place to be. not living that love is how uncrossable lines are drawn; be it between the right and the left, organized religion and those in opposition, anywhere involving latent conflict. people like this are what give Christianity a bad name and make it into some sort of embarassment, when in reality they live in opposition to its tenets.
do you know the story of Jesus and the adulteress? she was going to be stoned after being caught, but he stepped in and what did he say? "He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone:" and the crowd melted away. he had compassion and he forgave her. he forgave her, for a choice she'd made. if we can be forgiven for choices we make, we can't reasonably hold anything against people based on how they're born.
share love. give love. spread love. we all deserve it.
