“The revisionists on alpb accuse us Freepers of being “hateful” and “unloving” for telling the truth that they do not want to face.”
HS, as we Greeks say, these are not serious people. If you want to run with a tough crowd like Orthodox Serbs (or any Orthodox Christians for that matter), you’ve got to be ready to laugh at sissies who whine that other people are “hateful” and “unloving”. In my village even the old ladies and little children would snicker at that. Good heavens!
You know, I have a tendency for being rather blunt at times. A few weeks ago, a friend of mine (who wanted to be an ELCA pastor until he went to seminary and found they are no longer Christian) brought along a friend of his. She was pro gay, pro infanticide, and pretty much as liberal as they come. Oh, and she wants to be a pastoress.
Well, she said that in front of my other redneck Lutheran friend, and he pretty much verbally tore into her. Starting with the book of Romans (if I got the story right) and working back to the early church he read her the riot act on just what being a Christian means in regards to morality, the Trinity, and the Incarnation.
To make a long story short she called him a “hater”. Which made him laugh and say “You should have said this to Red! He is less polite then I am”.
No Kolo, these people aren’t serious. But the damage they do to other’s souls is serious. Some day that disturbed little girl is going to stand up in front a congregation and tell them abortion and gay sex is just fine and dandy with God. And some day she and those she led astray will stand before Him and hear the truth. That is the serious part.
