You would think that Christians would be overjoyed that a civil Government wants to enforce Christs' Laws.
Matthew 5: 39But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever
shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
44But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them
which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
45That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise
on the evil and on the good,and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust
Matthew 7: 1Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged:
and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
3And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye,
but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Jesus obviously agrees that hate is wrong--what a crying shame his "followers"--want to be free to keep hating & condemning other
