There is NOTHING in the New Testament that says that you must also:
*Hate gays
*Fight for elimination of people's RIGHT to choose who they are and what they think
*Kill abortion doctors and bomb clinics, or support people who do
*Demand the death penalty for just about anything that irritates you (Jesus was real pointed and direct on this issue, if you recall) if you're going to be pro-life, don't be hypocritical about it!!
*Cheer for foreign wars just because it makes great after-church TV
*condemn everyone who is intellectual enough to UNDERSTAND and clearly follow real objective science. (the Earth is NOT 6500 years old!)
YOU have twisted the message of Jesus into something ugly and sinister.

You are right about some people. They are extremists. Some of us, myself included, do NOT hate gays, do NOT fight for the elimination of people's rights, do NOT kill abortion doctors or bomb clinics or support those who do, do NOT demand the death penalty (I say make them pay for their crime. If they are dead it's over), are NOT warmongers (I am a peaceable person and NOT pro-war), and I am very intelligent with an IQ of 148 and have enough sense to believe science once is it known fact, not just speculation.

there is nothing that says you must hate gays or kills or do anything harmful or hateful. Those things are what happens when people mis-interpret the bible. You can love gay people, and still not support what they do. Just like you can love your alcoholic brother. Remember, the devil also sincerely "believes" in Jesus.

I don't hate gays, nor does Jesus, but we are to do what the word of God says about that.
We all have free will to chose what and how they want to live their life. Again we all should do what the word of God says about it.
Never have I wanted to kill doctors nor do I support them. Again we all should do what the word of God says about it. Thou shalt not kill.
I don't demand the death penalty, not my job to judge, only God is the one to decide when ones dies. My life belongs to Him and not mine to take.
Not against science, it just proves that there is a God.

Um, some of those things I agree with, some I do not. You have some facts and some of your statements are missleading.

I agree, but if you don't like THEIR generalizing then you should be a better example. (I just hate agreeing with you!)

You have issues.
Your (non)question is absurd.
