We do know that there are certain things God hates...

"There are six things the Lord hates, seven are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tounge, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart the devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness whp pours out lies, and a man who stirs up dissension among his brothers." (Proverbs 6:16-19)

Certainly those are less than admirable qualities...arrogance, lying, dividers. But I would suggest that it is better to leave the hating and condemning to God.

I repeat to you that my view is that there isn't anything that is much more harmful in this world than the hatred and condemnation by the children of God to one another.

Those who hate and condemn and love their hatred and condemnation are contributing to the pain and suffering in this world, imo. Those who do so consciously are consciously, deliberately causing harm. All the while Rick Warren is trying to help people.

I see. So does that include innocents killed in war zones? Innocents killed by inaction of others (to paraphrase Burke)? Or just babies killed in abortions? Let's see what else He hates. Lying tounge? Well we all know only Democrats lie right? Heart that devises wicked schemes? Well none of us have ever done that, well except Democrats of course...Feet that are quick to rush into evil? Depends on our everchanging definition of evil to condone our actions doesn't it? Since Democrats do evil and Republicans can only do good, guess that means only Democrats do that too. Check. False witness? Give me a break they're politicians. Stirs up dissension among his brothers? Well I know from reading right here on FR that only Democrats sling mud during campaigns...

Wow I guess you're right!! Republicans are lily white and Democrats are of the devil.
