How do we know this to be true?
Kieta put up some numbers that were only a shot in the dark because No one can run stats like that and pass it off as gospel.
Also I think you should apologize sis, to Christians for hearing something, believing in it, and then spreading it around as truth.
Afterall, isn't that what we accuse Christ followers of doing?
I appreciate the effort, Josef.
But, those who possess such a tainted view of Christianity and Christians will continue to believe the worst because that is what they choose to believe.
Whenever a negative news story surfaces about the Christian church, many others use it to denounce ALL of Christianity, especially many of those who have abandoned Christianity and the Bible.... They use it to paint ALL Christians with the same brush. They use it as a weapon to degrade Christianity and to smear ALL Christians.
There are countless churches and Christians who do all types of community out-reach, collectively and individually. But, those who are against Christianity don't want to hear or see those examples..... not even the examples right in their own communities.
All throughout this country and the world in small towns and big cities, there are churches and Christians "doing the Lord's work." ------ but those who oppose Christianity don't want to acknowledge that.
They only want to use any opportunity to malign Christianity..... They only want to be able to spew out their antagonism with
"And this is how so-called Christians act......"
Again, especially coming from someone who is not Christian, I appreciate your effort in fairness.
But, it falls on deaf ears.
