Muslims slaughtered Emos like cattle.

I pointed out that many/most (not all) Emos are anti-religion/atheist.

Christianity played no part in either.

What the Bible teaches in regards to anything Emos do has no direct relevance to any of the above. Indirectly one could put forth that it does in fact teach against crime, self abuse, homosexuality and other earmarks of Emo culture and they would in fact be totally correct.

But that does not apply in our thread discussion on the topic. Now just to clarify... I ‘personally’ believe in God pretty much as Catholicism teaches, though I do not consider myself a Catholic. I don’t do mass and meet the other requirements. That said, If Emos or anyone else chooses anti-religious or atheistic behavior, that’s between them and whoever they don’t believe in.

Nowhere did I insert my choice of belief in my stated opinions as the one they ‘should’ follow. I might think it, but I do not need nor did I, fall back on my religious beliefs to demonstrate the destructive behavior that anti-religious or atheistic choices help foster in the Emo world.

So, in sum, If I didn’t bring Christianity into this, the muslim POS killers didn’t bring Christianity into this, and the now dead Emo kids didn’t bring Christianity into this, nor is it of any relevance to this conversation, can you explain to me why the Gospel, Bible as a whole, Christians, or Christianity have a place in the discussion?

Anti-religious/Atheist can mean not believing in Izanami and hating Vishnu just as easily as it can mean disbelieving in Jesus Christ and hating God. So again, what’s the point?

Being in trouble and not sold on Islam, they are a logical target for a Christian outreach. In spite of caricatures you may have thought in terms of in the past, not too many Christians succeed in “winning souls” by bullying. But they do by preaching of a divine Savior who has embraced the wrongs and woes of the world with the purpose of doing away with them.
