I think that what they were going for here. Is how people say I’m a Christian, but in the same breath talk about how they hate the homeless, or minorities, or homosexuals, or all of the above.

However, the Jesus of the Bible tells them not to do that. He said to love everyone, and help those in need. Ya know? Stuff like that.

It’s like if I started a charity called “feed the whales”. So, people decided that sounded like a worthwhile cause, and donated a bunch of money. But after a couple of years in operation someone checked my books and discovered I’d only spent 10% of the money feeding the whales, and the other 90% killing the whales.

People would be outraged, and rightfully so. They come to me and say hey look at all this whale killing you did, and I responded with yeah but look at all those whales I fed.

It’s the same thing. Christianity at its heart is a book of stories. At the core though the teachings of Jesus are that we should love each other and care for each other. Yet, when you bring up all the child molesting, and the racism, and other shenanigans. The churches are quick to be like those are all one offs. Besides look at the money we donated to help the homeless and fight abortions. We can’t be racist. We donated money to help inner city kids.

In the end whether it’s people or a business or a church. You are what you do. Not what you say you do, or what your name would suggest. You are what you do.
