I don't hate... That's my problem with religion. I was taught hate not love in the church. They claimed I should not have anything to do with this group and that group. Jesus taught us inclusion.... I think this WOKE sounds like segregation.
Do you hate people because of the color of their skin? Do you hate people because they don't go to the same church?
I left the church when the preacher had an affair with my friend and then had her thrown out of the church to cover it up. I have nothing to do with religion. Humans give horrible examples.
Christians aren't supposed to dislike people because of their origin or their skin color or their religion. It seems, however, that rich white republicans do.
On top of that... I don't do religion because of Paul in the Bible. There are just too many unanswered questions about Paul and his relationships. Not interested in being preached to by a liar. Who saw Jesus knock him down? There were men around. He was on a mission to round up Christians for prison and death. None of those men saw Jesus knock him down? Really. Paul is what's wrong with religion.
AS for my bigotry towards rich, white, republicans.... I was one!!!! As some will remember I ran for commissioner in Calvert County as a Republican and I am of Irish and French stock... so, I'm a rich, white, republican.... and I am embarrassed to be called that after what I have learned.
I believe in Jesus. I believe He walked out of a solid stone tomb.... alive. I believe He is my Salvation. I just don't do religion.
I'm not going to hell... but if I do... I'll buy you a drink and you can tell me how wrong I am for eternity.
Jesus said it's almost impossible for a rich man to make it to Heaven.
Meanwhile.... IMHO this WOKE junk is not something Jesus would be happy about.
So, we should be considering our own attitude about Jesus and the Word without condemning those who don't look, act, or vote the way we want them too.
I'm sorry about the Pope... never figured him for more than a man with a fancy well-paying job... oh... rich white.... oh...
