Hey Huggy glad you can join us. maybe you can help?
One of my favorite nontheist "neighbors in Christ"
is a peace and justice activist, totally has faith in justice
and compassion for all humanity through forgiveness
and "abundance of free grace in life" and just has no concept of God or Jesus
and doesn't need one. Gets along great with other Buddhists, Christians, etc.
working on Peace and Justice locally and globally.
So I thought hey, if this gay atheist can align with Christians by focusing
on justice, and what it takes to replace retributive justice with restorative justice, then anyone can work out their differences, right? as long as we are forgiving of each other.
So I see the focus on Truth and Justice as a unifying and universal principle.
and the key issue in relating across political or religious lines is FORGIVENESS.
As long as we can FORGIVE our differences we can work together to correct
any problem, by focusing on where we AGREE FIRST
while we work out conflicts in the process.
If people aren't forgiving, then whether you are nontheist or Christian,
that's going to cause problems. It isn't the religion per se, but if we forgive each other.
SOOooo.... you are trying to sell "Justice" as "Forgiveness?"
Fiddlesticks !
You are barking up the wrong tree with a Chihuahua.
If you want to do the crime prepare to do the time. If you are doing a righteous crime do it well..don't get caught.
If you do get caught don't whine about it. If you are doing crime because you are lazy or evil...you have nothing coming. I have zero sympathy for you.
I have no problem with someone that kills another human being that really needs to be killed as long as you understand that you are gambling with your own life to do the deed.
Some people are so evil or otherwise useless wastes of oxygen that it is "the right thing" to offer up your own life to rid the world of evil. ORrrr... Just plan well and keep your mouth shut.
NOsiree Moncheree.. you can't sell Justice and sneak jeebus in the back door with forgiveness in HUGGY's Neighborhood.
If you support my enemy you are my enemy.
You are yourown worst enemy.
In not one instance has the enemies of Christ taken over a country in which they did not start slaughtering each other with purges and reigns of terror.
But then again, you do deserve it so well.
