Jesus' teaching is about love and forgiveness.

Right after he fashioned a whip and drove the money lenders from His Fathers house? Or before He called the Pharisees empty tombs?

Mt 10: 34-35

"Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. For I have come to turn "a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter in law against her mother in law - a mans enemies will be the members of his household."

You continue to prove my point. Those who live by "rules" and focus on sin - like the Islamists - cannot understand the path of love and forgiveness. They cannot comprehend such love - for they are in love with condemnation and attack.

I have heard of the Taleban wing of the republican party. I would assume that the Taleban wing love the quotes you posted. However, those who focus on love and forgiveness question whether Jesus ever uttered such. It does not fit with the body of His teaching.

You are welcome, of course, to your ideology of condemnation and attack. But it is NOT whar Jesus taught. God is Love. You cannot change the truth of that.
