People seem to form divisons between them their groups and other groups in many different ways. It can be religion, money, race, education or you name it. None of these things have to be an excuse to hate other people.
I was a nerd in highschool (early 1970s), but I didn't get good grades, I was just kind of a social outcast. People like me were called "sweat hogs" because we were all fat. (That was before the show "Welcome Back Kotter:") Later on I became a "freak" (drug user, long hair, we wore old army clothes), but when I decided to stop smoking pot, they didn't accept me any more. After that, I started to hang around with the "Jesus Freaks" (looked like the "freaks" but were into Jesus instead of drugs)although I wasn't religious; I liked arguing with them at the time. Generally, I decided those social groups were meaningless and I just tried to be my own person.

If 'we' eliminated people who do not agree with us presently; and they did the same; would we not eliminate the human race?
That may be one reason Jesus gave the Jews and Christians the '2 or more witnesses' principle; (one witness being self) Deut.10-20 for Jews, Matt. 18:16, 2 Cor 13:1 for Christians). Unfortuneately many 'Christians' in the USA presently are not applying the principle.
May you receive today to God's glory a large pleasant surprise!!!

All of the wars in history, I'm no history Major, but I think you can trace to this. I don't get it either. My brother and I have a theory that when we finally get to see God, whatever that means, he's gonna shake his head and say Man...y'all made it a lot more complicated than it had to be. But we are man ( and Woman, just use it as a generally term) and we have limited capabilities. I think most of it can be traced to fear, and selfishness. We're afraid of what we don't understand and we want everything our way...God Bless, and yea the negative energy, what a waste....

I don't want to be known as anything other than a Christian. I hope I show it through all my actions and the way I live my life. Christians don't hate other people. We do hate evil and should not accept it or tolerate it. That means we should speak the truth and turn away from the evil. Unfortunately there are other beliefs that don't stop at talking and avoidance. They allow their intolerance to lead to violence.
May God Bless you.

I was beginning to think this was the "shove my beliefs down your throught chat line"! Unfortunately it's the nature of humanity to try and force others to see things our own specific way. Most of these per sans probably did learn this behavior in high school, and they just cannot break the habit.

a million God did not get mad at Adam and Eve. God ought to of destroyed them . yet he chosen no longer to. He concept he would tutor them a lesson. purely as our mothers and fathers do. after we do incorrect. They punish us. in order to study from our blunders. 2 to comprehend why he banished lucifer. become because he led to worry for different angels. Who were unswerving to God. purely as a rebellious son or daughter would do. To destroyed their mothers and fathers homestead, and reason disruption in the kinfolk. So the mothers and fathers do what they sense is perfect for the different kinfolk contributors. eliminate them that helps you to no longer reason worry. Lucifer or devil. is permitted to go back to heaven. yet he can no longer stay. through announcing he become more beneficial efficient then God. And he become prepared to spoil Gods advent. purely as children would imagine they're more beneficial efficient then their mothers and fathers. and they can take administration of their mothers and fathers homestead. 3 Its no longer that he will make You burn in all eternity. He needs you to pay interest so that you gained't. If god did not love us. As you assert. then why would he hardship to deliver jesus to save us from ourselves? As for the e book being fictitious. are you able to actual tutor it truly is? previous life like doubt. are you able to actual say that the events in the bible did not take position? yet as you assert. no matter if it truly is fictitious. Then why does it hardship you so? because it style of feels you do not trust in it besides. Why are you so worried about who God loves and what God does?
