That's because it's written in the very bible that they shredded to turn the other cheek. We as Christians also realize that what is really valuable in God's eyes are his children, and that the bible is only the rule and guide of our faith. It is only a book. God lives in our heart, not between two covers of a book. The sqeaky wheel also gets the grease. Muslims make a lot of noise about disrespecting their religion. Why we think it's necassary to appease them is beyond me. Their a bunch of mindless crybabies.
It is only a book?
I was taught the Bible was the inspired WORD of God. "The WORD of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, joint and marrow and is a discerner of of the thoughts and intents of the heart." Hebrews 4:12 It is our handbook for living.
Inspired means to breathe in...the Bible and its words were breathed in to the men who actually wrote it down. It is not just a book....it is God's heart for mankind...it is His love letter to us. How many people out there cherish the love letters written to them by someone they are in love with?..they put them in carefully selected places so they wont get ruined or lost. How much more should they respect and cherish the love letter God wrote for us.
I'd like you to tell the person who is under penalty of death because of possession of even tiny portions of scripture...that it "just a book"....or those who are smuggling the Bible into communist China...that they are risking their lives for "just a book".
"Green eggs and ham" is just a book....
BIBLE...Basic Information Before Leaving Earth
Crybabies with unlimited funds..weapons...and a doctrine of 100% pure evil from the wellspring of evil...in their hearts and minds...
imo
They are not mindless, they are very purposeful. The strategy is to whine while in the minority and kill when in the majority. Been that way for 1300 years.
