I think I have literally forgotten how to close my mouth.
I don't even know where to begin to express my outrage at this mindless, negative abuse of Jesus's teachings. Where the hell do people get off warping what they are supposed to be following so completely out of its original form? I'm Methodist and I actually like being Methodist because there is a lot of room for individual thought within the church. Even among congregations. I also think there is more to the Father, Son and Holy Ghost that is in the Bible. I think that God gave us free will and I'm appalled that people who claim to follow him are so bound and determined to take it away from us. I want to know who the hell has the right to tell me how to worship or believe. That is between me and God and unless you subscribe to the Hindu belief of avatars, you are not an incarnation of God. I know I'm not.
My boss once told me how an evangelical friend of her's answered the What Would Jesus Do question. "I might not know what he would do, but he wouldn't be a bigot and he wouldn't be an asshole."
