Please, wasn’t Jesus that said God’s word is not to be forced on anyone? I guess a few more million people needs to be slaughtered for not converting to Roman Catholism.
You said — “Please, wasn’t Jesus that said God’s word is not to be forced on anyone? I guess a few more million people needs to be slaughtered for not converting to Roman Catholism.”
Well..., I’m not advising to convert to Roman Catholicism, actually. In terms of salvation, I would only refer to what the Bible says for accepting Jesus Christ as one’s personal Savior.
BUT, in matters of policy and teaching “theories” (in school) or promoting same-sex marriages — those are all issues that are derived out of the Bible, God’s Word in our conduct and understanding of the world from that same Bible. So, apart from matters of salvation — we do, as Christians, have rights to promote and enforce certain types of policies and behaviors and morals, as we are guided by God’s word. That’s a different matter than salvation.
Salvation is a free-will choice by a person, as to whether they want to go to hell or not... It’s up to them if they want to burn in hell forever, I guess... LOL...
But, in other matters, we find that others are just as “forceful” in making us believe and “learn” (by means of public education) that God doesn’t exist, that He didn’t create the universe and that we *must believe* and accept that we’re descended from the “goo to the zoo to us...”, along with the corresponding corollary of accepting same-sex marriage, because if there is no God, then there is no reason for us *not* to act like the animals the gays are acting like (doncha know...).
Wow, who said Freepers didn't do drugs. What a statement on Christmas!
...Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!
LOL!
Can you provide backup for that number?
Did you know, for instance, that Islamofascists currently kill more people each year than were killed during the entire 350 years of the Spanish Inquisition?
Sure, some bad things have been done in the name of Christianity, but bringing up aberrations that are hundreds of years old is pretty silly.
So you're all for giving the Catholics an opportunity to catch up to the 100 Million + slaughtered by Stalin, Pol Pot and Mao on the alter of Communist Atheism and Secular Humanism? That's really damn kind of you.
