This guy...this guy is why people get turned off by religion. He's got an awkwardness about him that makes me feel like he'd be LARP'ing in the park if he wasn't turned on to the bible.

I used to employ kids from private christian colleges and I'd get a couple of guys like this every year, using some sort of zealotry as a shield for their social ineptness. They are so obnoxious that they are also the people that everyone remembers when they think of a 'christian'.

He's likely 'saved' zero sluts and turned of another 1000 people who might have been on the fence about church.

Nooo... This dude sounds delusional in some way: You don't just out rightly condemn me for my "sins" and expect me to give my life to "Christ." I'm not a Muslim, but how dare he openly say all Muslims are going to hell...He should respect everybody's religion...

So, if someone's religion includes child sacrifice everyone should respect it?

He has good intent but ultimately he's sinning by being loud like that:

Quote:

Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.

2 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

3 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:

4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.

5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

^ That's from the sermon on the mount.

God likes his followers humble, private, and quiet. I only talk to people about Jesus in private.

And I think it's obvious why Jesus delivered that message - because he knew having maniacs running around harassing people would just make the religion look bad.

You should reach out to him personally.

I wouldn't mind having a conversation with this guy, but I'm not sure how productive it would be. For example, what's his Biblical basis for attacking guys for wearing low pants, or being fat? Gluttony and whatnot? He seems to be surprisingly insightful in some ways, but I wonder if it's just the case of a stopped clock being right.

You bring up a good point, today there's this big movement to accept everyone and everything. Oh thats just their culture. Muslims aren't bad but there is a bad offshoots of islam and everyones scared to call it bad because god forbid we say something bad about someones religion. The same goes for certain cultures. Lets look at afghans and the tea boys, a bunch of pedderasses. Should we respect boy fucking grown men because its part of their culture?

It's a slippery slope, should we accept NAMBLA because thats just how they are?

If your religion or culture is harmful to others it probably shouldn't be respected or tolerated.
