The point I was tryign to make is that they seem to ignore, “Hate the Sin, Love the Sinner” aspect of Christianity,

Gotcha... I just read your post wrong.

I agree. I am a sinner. But, I at least TRY not to.

“Hate the Sin, Love the Sinner” aspect of Christianity,


I have always had trouble with that statement. Sounds good until you think about it.

1) if you love someone you will tell the truth, not coddle them. And they will hate you when you tell them the truth. If you want to define love as telling the hard truth then I agree, but that is not what most people are thinking when they say that..................

2) In the case of sodomites, they ARE the sin. They identify themselves as the sin, they are proud of it. They laugh at you when you say that. You hate the sin, you hate them, even they understand that.

We are all sinners. I am recovering from the sin of gluttony and sloth and sometimes pride.

“Hate the Sin, Love the Sinner”


If you do some research that is a quote by Ghandi, not Jesus.
