It's true, all across the globe, believers like me are being labeled "racist" these days. Sure, when a muslim student brings a ceremonial dagger to school (granted, it is an ornemental thing and couldn't hurt a fly, I'm sure) that's alright. BUT when someone puts a nativity scene on the front lawn around Christmas, it's "religious descrimination." This is just another form of racism against believers in Christ.
"But White Christians have always been responsible for racism."
Yes, but people are quick to forget that anyone is capable of racism, not just White Christians.
"But the bible is all hate speech."
Hate speech? Whenever someone says something like this, I have to try to sell them a rock for twenty dollars. Some yokel in the Ku Klux Klan, or some politician who does something against god, warps the message and suddenly everyone assumes it's racism.... tell me if you find any of these to be racist...
"For god so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life." -- John 3:16
"You will not regard the Egyptian as detestable, because you were once a foreigner in his country." -Deuteronomy 23:7
"Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back." --Luke 6:30
"But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you." -Luke 6:27
Oh dear! Look how horribly racist we are! Nevermind the Neo-Nazis, the old nazis, the Ku Klux Klan, or the World Church of the Creator or all of those other groups that actually *do* want to hurt people of other skin colors. Nope, *we're* the racists.
"I haven't seen Anti-Christian Racism anywhere, what are you talking about?"
You don't see anti-christian racism because the media is controlled by people that hate the believers (and no, it's not the jews.) Consider these...
-June 15th, 2008, a man from "repentamerica.com" was fined for preaching near the liberty bell for preaching against abortion, saying that "innocent babies are being murdered" and to "serve the lord and not sin, because sin separates us from god."
And consider these...
-2006, Madison Wisconson, the National Socialist Movement rallies on the capitol building (or something like that) spewing hate speech and not one of them gets arrested.
And these...
-Hal Turner, a white nationalist shock jock, makes NUMEROUS advocations for violence on people of a different skin color and hasn't been arrested. What horrible things has he said? The Anti-Defermation League has a whole page on the stuff he has said. Take a look.
This guy hasn't been arrested for saying these things. His website even threatens to "do a clean up of washington." By Clean Up, they mean shooting people, and why is this guy not in Guantanimo Bay, I wonder...
I don't think I have to keep going. Just look at it. The Hypocracy in the world. People point at believers and say "They're the ones doing all of this." They should really just turn around, look in a mirror, point at it and say "That's the one responsible for all of this."
"But racism against Christians is justified! Look at all the atrocities they commited! Slavery, the Crusades, the list goes on!"
What does any of this have to do with us here and now? If we as a people do not move forward, we will only move backwards. Think about that.
"What about today's atrocities against homosexuals?"
Atrocities? If you mean violence, I can assure you people who commit such things are fake christians...
Oh, you mean the gospel preaching... From my viewpoint, we're trying to spare homosexuals for a life of unbelievable pain. It's all in my article on homosexuality.
"But if we don't take you down, you'll hurt us!"
Now that's just paranoia. Just because a handful of us go a little batty and kill some people doesn't make us all psychotic. Some of us are a slightly off our rockers, even I think about hurting people. I don't want to, so I'm fighting it tooth and nail every day. If a believer intentionally hurts someone else, they have failed themselves as believers. The believer is required only to help others, preach the gospel, and read the scriptures. Simple as that. We're not allowed to fire a single shot (Luke 6:27)
"Why do you people have to be so offensive?"
We don't have to be, but people get offended even when we aren't trying to be. Because our ways are so strict that it looks like fascism to the rest of the world. But there's a difference. With Fascism, if you don't do what you're told, they kill you. With us, it's do or do not, if not, meh. We just have to preach the gospel, and that's that. People get so offended, thinking we're trying to push our beliefs on them, that they have to go and call the cops on us. These police officers have better things to be doing with their time, arresting true criminals.
"What are you driving at?"
What I'm trying to say this this...
Descrimination against we, the believers, is no different than descrimination against blacks, jews, hispanics, etc. It is hypocracy to think otherwise. Take a long, looooong look in the mirror and think about it.
