Thread Name: BS: America WAS a Christian Nation
Subject: RE: BS: America WAS a Christian Nation
American Christianity today is hardly Christianity: it is less about the New Testament than it is about the Old Testament. No love, tolerance, peace, gentleness, respect for women, cheek-turning -- none of that wussy stuff.

American Christianity today is all about judgment, control (look out, women!), power, retribution, smiting, wrath, and imposition of all these things on others.

Abortions are not okay, but wars and executions are okay. It's not death itself that is bad -- only certain types of death.

Jesus Christ would not recognize what some Americans -- fundamentalist Americans -- call Christianity. He would be the first one judged and found wanting by these dipshits.
