Re: Measuring the Christians

Personally I find it hard to put aside the kind of disgusting attitudes that we see portrayed by the "traditional" Christians that have posted to this thread. This is in spite of the kind of Christians I have as friends and the likes of Jar. They are just not enough to overcome the poison that I see here.
That is why I usually shut up when I am emotional.

My subjective judgement is thumbs down. Too bad the roman emperors hadn't kept them down 1700 or so years ago. Christianity owes it's survival to the politics of the Roman empire. Not the best legacy.
I maintain that we owe our survival to the grace of God. Why He never allowed us to be wiped out is beyond my comprehension....perhaps seeing the worst of us is a way to encourage you to not repeat the same mistakes!

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
