Well "they" make a lot of false...Yeah?:)<br /><br />Well "they" make a lot of false accusations about other people, don't they? <br /><br />And it's usually things they've done themselves and tried to pin on those people, IF they ever happened at all.<br /><br />THAT's not immoral or anything, nooooo.<br /><br />I dunno, Crushie, Jesus didn't always turn the other cheek. It often depended on the character of the person and if it benefitted his overall cause to do so.<br /><br />He was a master at seeing right through the masks that people wore and calling them on it, and he knew when his message was wasted on them and would just call a spade a spade a spade at that point. <br /><br />Jesus could shake it up at times, especially when it came to the Pharisees, yes?<br /><br />Turning over tables with the thieves in the temple?<br /><br />He was about love, sure - but also about standing up against hypocrisy and greed, as I said.<br /><br />Well, that's about it for me this week - time to go get "piratized" this weekend, as we are all attending a Halloween ball tomorrow night! <br /><br />(Make that Maurauder's wench, ye matey)<br /><br />If you're good I'll show you pics...or is that if you're bad?;)<br /><br />Kissess...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3334391160365031546.post-9861738601893740182010-10-29T10:47:58.398-07:002010-10-29T10:47:58.398-07:00Honey, you really got to be careful. They'll a...Honey, you really got to be careful. They'll accuse me of having brainwashed you! ;)<br /><br />I agree with every word you've written.<br /><br />I've come to the conclusion, honey, that there's one good way to spot someone who isn't actually a Christian.<br /><br />They use phrases like 'speaking as a Christian'.<br /><br />To me, the two most important things Christ said were 'Turn the other cheek' and 'Love thy enemies for what reward is it to love those that love you?'<br /><br />Interestingly, I read an interesting argument by Naomi Wolff recently.<br /><br />She argued that, contrary to late seventies fears, pornography has actually, if anything, reduced people's sexual appetites. <br /><br />I'm not sure why that surprise anyone. but it goes to prove the point I've always made. The more you satisfy people's lusts and fantasies, the more passive and pacific a society you create.Crushedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02479751225625007588noreply@blogger.com
