A New York Times guest essay argued that American gun culture has been made all the more fanatical because of its ties to Christianity. It also claimed that Christianity makes mass shootings more possible. Author Peter Manseau, a religious author, wrote in his Thursday piece, "But many of our fellow citizens don’t just own guns, they believe in them. They believe the stories told about guns’ power, their necessity, their righteousness."
Manseau theorized that this is what has happened at the intersection of American Christianity and the Second Amendment. He opened his opinion piece with the question, "Is our gun problem a God problem?"

They don’t even hide it anymore.
It has nothing to do with Christianity.
Its about the ability of a person to defend themselves against threats, violence, and home invasions.
If you have no means of protecting yourself you are at the mercy of feral criminals and thugs.
The NY Times guests essay a lot of things.
Probably about 99.0% wrong.
Atheism promotes moral relativism that allows epidemic of mass shootings.
Toss out the First Amendment.
Toss out the Second Amendment.
Just let the communists have total control.
Is that about it?
Next...Paul of Tarsus burns Rome!
Substitute “Jew” for Christian and see if religious bigotry becomes the topic.
It has nothing to do with Christianity.
Its about the ability of a person to defend themselves against threats, violence, and home invasions.
If you have no means of protecting yourself you are at the mercy of the government.
FTFY
Moral decay has nothing to do with it, eh??
Well, Mr. Manseau??
Jews Next?
.
Oh wait,,
Remember - the NYTimes is completely staffed by communists who took over the newsroom.
You’ll get the same stories from the China communist party daily posts.
The Qur’an’s talk of attacking infidels carries alot more warning signs than what this person is claiming about Christianity.
CNN had toobin on, incredibly. The NYT is a bit worse, but watching the CNN meltdown is more fun.
How many of these mass shooters are Christians instead of looney emo-ridden MK_Ultra subjects again?

The early Christian church in Rome was blamed for many of the ills in the now defunct Roman empire. They were considered atheists( denied that Caesar was God)....and cannibals( the symbols of blood and flesh) from their feasts honoring Christ at the last supper. Not surprising that the same class of lies by the unbelievers are still floatin’ around.
Let’s face it....the once reliable pro American value institutions are now trying to promote any political and religious system. Don’t expect MSM to be any different.
I'm not going to say that he's a homo.
