Well that's why I avoid those hypocrites. And it's hard to never show anger bro. Any Christian that has ever said he follows the word of god completely is a liar and a hypocrite. Jesus tells us we are not perfect but we must try to love each other. I personally don't hate anyone. Can you explain what happens in the video to me? I can't see it from my iPod.
The premise of the show is that two families exchange mom's for a week. The moms live in the new house and try to fit into the new families. In the end both families are given 50k but the new moms decide how the money is spent.
This Christian woman was sent to a house that is centered on new age thinking. They believe in astrology, reincarnation, and hypnosis. They observe some pagan ideas such a celebrating the summer solstice. This woman was not asked to participate in any rituals or worship. She was simply exposed to the ideas of this family and couldn't handle it. She would not even listen to them explain their beliefs, however she demanded each of the children listen to her ideas about Christ. She applied none of the standards she imposed upon their beliefs to her own. In the end she left each member of the family a bible for them to study.
Upon returning home she enters a fit of rage and rants about all the things she was exposed to. She screams about the other families children not being Christians or going to church. She then proceeds to blame her family for the ordeal because they did not pray hard enough for her. She frantically declares anything not of Christ to be dark-sided, and orders anyone who doesn't believe in Christ out of her home.
Meanwhile we were shown the other mom, the new age thinker, trying to live among the Christian family. She participates in a small party intended to introduce her to the friends of the family, but it just ends up being a judgement session for the other Christian ladies. She is made to feel inferior and unwelcome.
Again this does not represent all Christians. It represents the potential for Christianity and any dogmatic adherence to religion to spawn hate and intolerance, a potential that is all too often realized. When we criticize religion, and you say those people are crazy people and not the Christians you know, you are missing the point. We are speaking of the potential and giving examples of that potential manifested. Almost anything can be used for evil intent, all technology is double sided, all ideas can be misconstrued, but religion offers and arguably fosters a unique path to evil not found elsewhere. These teachings make this evil seductive to even good hearted people, and once realized, the teachings offer complete justification for it. These are the consequences of this type of thinking, and the cherry on top is that religion has built in discouragement of critical analysis of these consequences.
you're funny.
