166. I think the answer lies in oneself.
Edited on Thu Aug-25-05 11:37 AM by Shell Beau
Hypocrisy-bad
Murder- bad
Lying-bad and so on, and so on. As humans we all do things we aren't supposed to do. But if you want to convince others to live as a Christian, you have to make it known that you do all of those things. Robertson coming out and saying what he did makes me believe he is very hypocritical. Is he still a Christian? I don't know. To me only God knows that answer. Shunning homosexuals? Again hypocritical. It is only God's job to judge. We as humans have to make judgments daily. Who is a "true" Christian? No one really. We all sin and none are perfect. But as Christians we believe we are forgiven for that. I am sure God looks on in disappointment when he hears such things from the likes of Robertson. None of us are what we could or should be. I understand the anger towards Robertson, I feel it too. I don't feel it towards Christianity at all. I try to appreciate any and all beliefs. (by that I don't mean cultish beliefs, murder, etc. Or anything really outside of the norm)
