ah...so you agree?
Mt 18:21-35
.....
I forgave you your entire debt because you begged me to.
Should you not have had pity on your fellow servant,
as I had pity on you?
Then in anger his master handed him over to the torturers
until he should pay back the whole debt.
So will my heavenly Father do to you,
unless each of you forgives your brother from your heart.
Using Christianity to make oneself feel superior to others is not Christian, gives Christianity a bad name, and does not accomplish the Great Commission. So if you are more interested in feeling superior than in humbling yourself to the reality that ALL fall short of the glory of God, you are missing the point. Go back and review your posts. Moral preening and condemnation is not an appropriate way to show the love and forgiveness you are preaching.
My Jesus did not found the “Church of Nice” that you appear to be propounding. if He needed to get to the Temple before sundown, I have no doubt he would have flogged His donkey. He took a whip to the moneylenders and wrecked their stalls right in the Temple of God. He had no patience for corruption. Does that mean He did not love the sinners and die for them? No, it does not. Neither does our exasperation with McCain’s lying, two-faced weaseling mean that he is not our brother in the human family. That’s your judgment, to make yourself believe you are our moral superior.
Most of the posters on here do not hate McCain; rather they feel disillusioned and let down badly by his behavior and have a right to call it for what it is. He has disappointed us greatly and it is our call to rebuke bad behavior in the proper context, which is to look out for those areas in which we have a legitimate interest: taxpayer dollars, republicanism and conservatism. He has betraying all three. We are justified in forming a righteous judgment of his actions, since indulging his betrayals before he dies is no way to prepare him to meet his Maker.
You, on the other hand, have no call to go around picking on other freepers who are total strangers to you, except in the extremely unlikely event that you are a five-figure monthly donor who is paying their way. Pluck the log from your own eye.
