Would somebody please tell me who or what gave Christians and Jesus this hug-the f..k-out-of-your-enimies mentality? Who originally said that Christians should be against war and against fighting evil through the military?
When did this trend start?
If you honestly think that the Bible condems war and fighting evil, and that Jesus is this non-violent, everybody-goes-to-heaven communist, please do yourself a favor and read Ecclesiastes 3:1-8, Romans chapter 1, Matthew chapter 23 (especially verse 33), John chapter 2, Revelation chapter 2, Revelation 19:11-21, and Matthew 26:53.
jesus said to love your enimies, but did he say ALL your enimies or MOST of your enimies? The answer to that question is unknown, therefore, it is up to US to interpret it!
I say that Jesus was saying to love MOST of your enimies, not ALL of them! Do you guys really think that Jesus is in heaven right now wanting us to "love" the terrorists and "love" the POW's in Guantanamo and Abu Ghraib?

you're taking very much of what's in the Bible out of context. In different words, you're actually not pondering the scripture in its entirety. locate me a verse in the Bible that mentioned that Jesus killed all and sundry for my area. locate me a verse that mentioned any of his disciples did so for my area. whilst the Romans & Jewish religious leaders got here to arrest him, Jesus very own disciple drew his weapon and struck off a slave's ear. Luke 22:fifty one indicated that he no longer in basic terms reprimanded his disciple for doing that yet he additionally healed the slave. If he sanctioned struggling with, he and all of his disciples might have all had swords and that they might have began a slaying. Or for that remember, he might have appealed to his father for legions of angels to strike down the lads as you propose in Matt 26:fifty 3. the subject with a great a lot of people is that even in spite of the shown fact that they could be trustworthy in desirous to understand the Bible, they permit their very own very own emotions color its actual meaning and that they finally end up analyzing it to what they choose it to characterize.

All I know is Jesus killed no one, Jesus dismembered no one, and Jesus may or may not have had a wife but if he did she wasa lot older than SIX when he married her and a lot older than NINE when they got down.
Unlike a certain "prophet" born 570 years later.....

god wants us to love everyone- that doesn't mean we shouldn't punish criminals and remove them from society so innocents aren't in danger

I disagree, we are to love ALL our enemies. However, God understands why sometimes we cannot.
