[Fundie outraged by a "Christian" organization, who helped to free a Hostage.]
I was shocked to find out that the guy from Canada (where I live) who was freed from captivity was a practicing homosexual and that the so-called "christian" organization is apparently so-called in name only. I am glad that that they were saved from death, but it seems that they have yet to be saved in the biblical sense of the word though.
Now the world papers are shaming the name of Jesus as they report about a "homosexual christian." No wonder many Muslims think christians are infidels and want to kill them! Of course I am against such violence, but to attach the name of Christ to such an organization is positively devilish! What better way to confuse Muslims as to the real Christ?

Yes, let us see what Jesus had to say about this attitude.
Matthew 9 : 10-13
While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew's house, many tax collectors and sinners came and ate with him and his disciples. When the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?” On hearing this, Jesus said, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. But go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice.' For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."
Matthew 25 : 40-45
The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.' Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.' They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?' He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.'
I often wonder if fundies read the thing they supposedly consider the inerrant, fundamental cornerstone of their belief system.

Now the world papers are shaming the name of Jesus as they report about a "tar baby christian." No wonder many Muslims think christians are infidels and want to kill them!

Sound better to you, asshole?
"I was shocked to find out that the guy from Canada (where I live) who was freed from captivity was a practicing homosexual"
That's absolutely the most shocking information ever. Imagine, a homosexual IN CANADA![/sarcasm]
"and that the so-called "christian" organization is apparently so-called in name only."
So called? Why? Because they rescued a homosexual?
"I am glad that that they were saved from death,"
How magnanimous. hat a wonderful person you must be.
"but it seems that they have yet to be saved in the biblical sense of the word though."
What if he didn't want to be "saved? Many people have escaped the Christian delusion and understand that they do not need to be "saved" in the "biblical sense."
"Now the world papers are shaming the name of Jesus as they report about a 'homosexual christian.'"
Oh, how sad, not everyone holds your imaginary friend in the highest esteem. Hmmm. You can't expect everyone to as gullible and foolish as you, Sheky.
"No wonder many Muslims think christians are infidels and want to kill them!"
And, many Christians want all us non-Christians to suffer eternal torment. Nice theology, eh?
"Of course I am against such violence, but to attach the name of Christ to such an organization is positively devilish!"
So, you deny that the "unsaved" will go to hell? Or is it that never-ending torture of the masses in hell is OK, but genocide on earth is bad? Talk about situational ethics.
"What better way to confuse Muslims as to the real Christ?"
Why is it that you want to confuse them? I thought Jesus asked you to convert them? You only want to "save" the already "saved?"
Uh, in Matthew 8:5, Yeshua Ben Yosef(Jesus to you.."If Jeeezuhhhz thought the KJB was good 'nuff fo' him, it's good 'nuff fo me folks)Heals a roman centurion's servant.The original aramaic and greek scriptures referred to the servant as a _pais_.
Back then, a pais provided sexual favours to their masters, sometimes
developing close relationships with them.The passages in Matthew 8:5 to 8:13 refer to a _MALE_ servant.Not only that, Jesus doesn't just heal the servant, he is awed by the faith and the love of the roman centurion for his pais, as well as Yeshua's magical power.
-My two bits
Why, because they do their Christian duty to help a human being?, do you justify violence just because they are the way the are?, sorry the only NON-CHRISTIAN is YOU.
Shell, I think it's more like a medical license or something.
I'm guessing there's a bar examination you have to sit through . I think you have to find a study buddy to bone up with.
Non practising homosexuals like Shekel here, are known to be "in the closet".
Gee, it's almost too bad that they 'rescued' these sodomites since they are technically going to hell anyway, guess they shoulda just left them there with the other godless heathens, huh? asshole...
So this is why the rest of the world hates the US? Oh! it is all so clear now! So called "christian" indeed.
What better way to confuse Muslims as to the real Christ?
Muslims already know that Jesus is God's prophet. You're the one who's confused as to who Jesus really is you claim he's God!
My Bible knowledge is a bit rusty, but didn't Jesus help the male companion of a Roman soldier? "Companion" in those days likely meaning gay lover?
I think your Christ would have been honored to have a gay man saved by an organization bearing his name.
"No wonder many Muslims think christians are infidels and want to kill them!"
Yes because, homosexuality aside, Muslim extremists love christianity. That would explain all the beheadings of christians in such nations.
Maybe you should try moving to one of those nations. Just remember: Hand a camera to the guards when you enter the chambers.
Confused?
