Its a Debate Question...

2006-08-19 07:04:38 · 24 answers · asked by Anonymous in Law Enforcement & Police

If you are a Christian, you must realize that by supporting war, you are guaranteeing yourself a place in hell. Jesus made it clear that fighting...even against those that persecute or attack you...is wrong. The one thing that Jesus said more than anything else is "do not be afraid". The second most thing that He said was "love your neighbor unconditionally". And no, that doesn't mean just the person who lives in the house next to yours...it means everyone! Killing someone is not loving them.

When the Zealots approached Jesus expecting to lead them in a war against Rome, Jesus reproached them. The closest thing to violence that Jesus ever did, was knocking over the tables of people that were trying to make people pay to worship.

Jesus repeatedly said "turn the other cheek", and "do not judge others". If you are truly a Christian, listen to what Jesus says. If you are truly a Christian, you must not support anyone that promotes fear, hatred, or war. You must not support those that try to take away from the poor (when asked what must be done to attain salvation, Jesus said "you must first sell everything that you own and give it all to the poor"). If you do, you will be judged and found lacking.

The tenets of Christianity are simple. Love God (which includes respecting that which He created), Love your neighbor (meaning every person), and do not fear. Simple. Yet many conservative Christians refuse to follow any of the three tenets. Conservatives work to destroy the environment to increase short-term profits. Conservatives believe that killing people is good, as long as your country is rich and has big technology, and is the United States or Israel. Conservatives try to take opportunity and the basic ability of the poor to live away. Conservatives spread fear and terror wherever they go. CONSERVATIVES ARE NOT CHRISTIANS. Christians do none of these things, because these things are expressly forbidden.

They destroyed whole of lebanon for the "mistakes" of hezbullah? Why should all Americans not be held responsible for the destruction Bush has caused? He was avenging his father and 3000 Americans dead. He ended up killing over a 100,000 civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan and bringing about civil war and near dismemberment... The attack on America was retribution for neo-colonial policies and interference of US in the Middle Eastern affairs... especially Wests support to Israeli occupation of Palestine... I am sure you smart people have some excuse for that too... But does the spiral of violence end anywhere? Don't you have any smart people left in the US to work around this and usher in thinking that does not stink of blood?

They're problem is similar to ours, except that there doesn't seem to be indication that the illegals are showing up at the tribe shools, or to use tribe health care.

What do you think?

Just 1, but first they'll have to spend $40 million in taxpayer money holding a congressional hearing on it, while complaining how everyone else wastes money. Then they'll have a special investigator spend another $40 million on it.

How many conservatives does it take to change a light bulb? none. They'll pass a law forcing school children to pray to god to take the dark away.

Whats the difference between a conservative and the rear end of a horse? I don't know either.

Why are conservatives hearts so wanted for transplants? Because the've had so little use.

What's the difference between a puppy & conservative who lobbyist didn't pay enough? Eventually the puppy stops whining

Director Spike Lee thinks she is.Like most black people Spike despises Condi. His forthcoming movie reveals her trying on $500 shoes on Madison Av. while New Orleans drowned. This is what he said in an interview which made the front page of NY Daily News:

Says Lee: "I dislike Condoleezza Rice more than [President] Bush. The thing about it is that she's gotten a free ride from black people."

"People say, 'She's so successful' and 'Look at her position as a black woman.' She is a black woman who grew up in Birmingham, Ala., and said that she never experienced a day of racism in her life," Lee tells the April issue of Stuff magazine.


"Condi, stop smoking that crack!, I know you love your Ferragamo shoes, but come on. While people were drowning in New Orleans, she was in Madison Ave. buying up the shop"

"...The issue of illegal immigration is less about charity or human kindness and more about national sovereignty, borders, and a nation’s purpose for existing. The victims of illegal immigration are the American people. Why is Congress, the Senate and the President considering the welfare of Mexican citizens before they listen to the will of the American people?"
