The god of force is gaining ground

In America, gays were bashed, generally with a baseball bat, for sport, not lynched, at least in the until gay pride took hold.

Indeed... "gay bashing" is a common enough term, too... but Donald's supporters haven't yet appropriated that one...

The poster that I quoted was saying that the term is racist, I was saying not always.

The term is not racist but here, in America, lynching is heavily associated with race, particularly in the 20th century. If you think finding an example of someone who was lynched not being black proves something, you're wrong.

Yet. What a lot of younger people don't realize is that the bashing used to be literal.

Did you hear how Graham defended Donald?

The South Carolina senator called the impeachment inquiry “a lynching in every sense.”

Does even know what the word means?

Still is... though not as often anymore.

He's trying to get back in the Master's good graces... why anyone would bother at this point is something of a mystery, given his mood swings.

What did Jesus commanded Christians?

- Use worldly resources to help our Brothers and Sisters in need...

What did Christians actually do?

- Use wordly resources to indulge themselves in worldly things, drink the cup of wrath with unbelievers, deny help to the brothers and sisters in need....

What would Jesus do to such Christians? - Matthew 24:50-51

The devil is actually being "nice" compared to what Jesus will do to many Christians in His return.

This is not true. We (conservative Christians) use churches and charities to help others, not the government.

Including fetuses? because it seems to me that you're pushing pretty hard to get the government to "help" them...

Wow, nice to see that you speak for all of them. I'll have to remember that for the future.

The "God of force" has been in control for a long LONG time. This God controlled the schools, the churches, the government, the courts, the media.... If you were the least bit different --- the wrong gender, the wrong race, the wrong religion, the wrong politics, the wrong --- well, the wrong anything --- this God could make your life a living hell. Even to the point of lynching you. I do not worship the God of force no matter how this God manifests itself or who this God hates.
