You can go ahead and cast the first stone. Just don’t ask me to.

I am not recommending casting stones, idiot.

Would you not cast advice to a child playing in the street?

If not, would you weakly whine that it’s really none of your business, the child is not yours, therefore your self-righteous pose means you don’t have to care if they live or die?

The Christian faith, doubtful you are aware, teaches the spiritual works of mercy from example, that we are to counsel the doubtful, instruct the ignorant, TO ADMONISH SINNERS, comfort the afflicted, forgive offenses, bear patiently the troublesome, and pray for the living and the dead.

It is merciful to want to save a soul, where possible, and do so because we care. Of course it doesn’t always bear fruit. The child may go back into the street to sit and play, or the atheist continue in his sinful gay behavior, but we try.

At least most of the civilized do warn, and comfort and try. Is that so foreign to a Christian way of life???
