The Bible is MUCH more violent than the Qu'ran. Christianity is the bloodiest religion in the history of the world. We've been killing Muslims at a rate of 8 every minute. Christians have been killing Muslims in Afghanistan since 1838. Christians in Germany sent 6 million to the gas chambers. Christians are the only ones in history to drop atomic weapons on a civilian population. American Christians shoot each other at a rate of 93 every single day.

There is no group in the United States less attached to its own ideals or more eager for its own exploitation than religious conservatives. Forget Augustine and Aquinas, Wilberforce and Shaftesbury. For many years, leaders of the religious right exactly conformed Christian social teaching to the contours of Fox News evening programming.
Now, according to Bannon, “economic nationalism” is the “centerpiece of value voters.” I had thought the centerpiece was a vision of human dignity rooted in faith. But never mind. Evidently the Christian approach to social justice is miraculously identical to 1930s Republican protectionism, isolationism and nativism.
The religious right is making itself a pitiful appendage to this squalid agenda. If Christian conservatives are loyal enough, Bannon promises that they can be “the folks who saved the Judeo-Christian West.” All that is required is to abandon the best of the Judeo-Christian tradition: a belief in the inherent value and dignity of every life.
The religious right is an interest group seeking preference and advancement from a strongman — and rewarding him with loyal acceptance of his priorities. The prophets have become clients. The priests have become acolytes.

These folks who insist on the labeling of other human beings never read any others"good book".

They hang on the word of avowed terrorists with an agenda. I cannot speak for all, but to be so programmed by bad people to believe the reason THEY give for being bad applies to whomever they designate, and to repel what good people say s simply hard to understand.

Christianity ONLY deals with the New Testament. The old Testament was before Christ's birth.

Hey Mellinhead - do you have any statistics of how many Christians wrap bombs on their body and walk into public places and blow up unarmed, un aware, innocent people?

The Irish Republican Army did a lot of bombing back in the day. Many “civilians” were killed, many Irish supported them including many Irish Americans including politicians. “English out of Ireland” was a popular chant and I remember seeing many bumper stickers. One man’s terrorist is another man’s patriot.

No, Christians use rifles from 36 stories up to kill 59 and injure over 500 unaware, unarmed, innocent people. The rest of the time they do it remotely via the USAF.

It took this American to do what ISIS can only dream of.

Now now Mellinhead, presenting a "one off incident" is hardly statistically making of a point (your 15.7 IQ is showing)...obviously the coward in Vegas was not a good Christian, if he was one at all.

I am always suspect of someone that needs to go to church more than once a week...how many bad thoughts does that person have a week??

Even when it's being a coward, we are the best at everything...now Don is going to point out the success was due to race.

He may have been an American, but I doubt he was a Christian.

The point of this post was to connect Christianity to Liberty, through the Golden Rule, as follows:

The Magic Sentences of Liberty

Liberty is a poetic term for property rights.

Therefore there are only two kind of laws:

Type 1) those that protect property rights

Type 2) and those that attack property rights <--- where fascism of all kinds live

"Have the government do unto others and their property as you'd have the government do unto you, and your property."

We can eliminate 90% of the conflict we call politics with first principles of liberty.

See, you can make sense. Please, carry on...

Thank you -- but one way or another, I've been saying this for months, it seems. Can't people connect the dots ????
