“That is not the Christ I follow,” the mayor told the newspaper. “It’s not the Dallas I want to be — to say things that do not unite us but divide us. I never heard those words — that voice come out of Christ. Just the opposite. I was brought up to believe: Be proud of yours, but do not diminish mine.”

He must've missed the part about "No one gets to the Father except through the Son."

Guess he doesn’t know the Jesus of the Bible.

“Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division”

Sounds like the mayor is reading it all wrong. “We are a Christian nation” tells me that even a non-Christian is welcome. I don’t see it being divisive at all.
If Syria or Iran or Saudi Arabia were “Christian nations”, they wouldn’t have all the human rights issues we see there.
I guess Dallas puts up “holiday decorations”...not Christmas.
(...and 10 to 1, that mayor does not “follow Christ” at all...)

I dont recall Jesus telling anyone to be proud of themselves or anything they thought or did.
