Frank J. Explains Christianity

Here is something strange, Frank J. explaining Christianity:

So, not only is murder in support of Christianity not encouraged, it itself is a sin. This wasn't always well known, though, and some people long long ago murdered people for not being Christians. That causes problems today, as people will say, "While other religions murder people now, some people a hundred million years ago murdered people in the name of Christianity, so Christianity is just the same."

And you might respond, "But that was very long ago and went against the principles of Christianity and thus is condemned."

And the person will rebut, "Yes, but I'm a moral retard who equivocates everything. As far as I'm concerned, A is the same as Z."

And there is no response to that.

So, not only is murder completely condemned by Christianity, the fact that anyone would murder in the name of Christ is considered harmful to the religion.

Despite these insane, murder-phobic beliefs, Christianity still seems to thrive. "Good living" and "salvation" apparently is enough to keep people faithful to a religion. Actually, it makes one wonder that, if "not being murdered" is the main selling point of your religion, maybe you should rethink the whole thing.

The thing about Christianity that most people don't understand is that it can only be truly understood once you experience it. I could try and explain it but it doesn't have the same impact until you've lived through it. A good analogy is giving birth. You can't understand the pain of childbrith until you've experienced it.

BTW, I can't believe that the Best of the Godblogs linked to Frank J. Did someone tell him?
