Parables

That’s the ironic thing about the Bible. It can be used to justify almost anything. Isn’t that why the founders were careful to separate church from state?

Not that I’m anti-religion. I just want to be able to cherry pick the parts I believe in like everyone else. What parts do I select? The parts about not judging others (Matthew 7:2), loving your enemies (Luke 6:35) and your neighbors (Mark 12:31), and not grumbling against each other (James 5:9).

  1. I love this. Why do so many “Christians” choose to follow the Bible texts that are so blatantly un-Christlike?
