So the same Jesus that said to turn the other cheek said to sell your cloak for a sword? Something’s wrong with that picture, or interpretation, or translation. And I am not claiming it would be easy, what’s easy is lashing out violently in return, it’s hard to keep control and put your trust in the Creator who has your eternal life in his hands.

All that is fine and well, but doesn't that same bible say, though shall not steal, how about looting, violence against others? Religion and war never go very well together, that's why the government allows conscious objectors.

Essentially these so called protesters have declared war against our local governments. If they had towels on their hands and names like Muhammand, they would be called terrorist. I really don't see the difference. Besides, what if you're an atheist?

You know there are 20,000 military veterans living in TV, and with the popularity of 'Shooters World' it seems many here don't share your philosophy, religious or not. This is my philosophy.
