HATE

In light of the world problems, Syria, Ukraine, Russians, Africa. What else? We now read that the hatemongering Westborough Baptist Church, with its seventy members, has a family feud going on. Even as the founder lay dying, the daughter continues her  antigay rhetoric, among other things.

Jesus, who preached acceptance and tolerance on every hand, has to deal with the pastor as he makes his journey to the great beyond. Here is a hint: The Four Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, are about what Jesus said and did. Everything else in the New Testament of the Bible is about what "others" said he said or did. (The Westborough Baptist Church does what is called, "proof texting"--they take, usually, an obscure Biblical passage to give credence to their hate mongering in Jesus/God's name). They can't do it from the gospels but will say we "believe the whole Bible," thus "proof texting" with some obscure verse or two that allows their anti gay rhetoric. It is an interpretation, a 100% proof texting, which is put forth by total ignorance. (The media is partly at fault for giving these idiots headlines).

OK, here is the big question. How in the world will Jesus handle someone like the pastor of Westborough, the epitome of hatred. Look at just one hateful thing the  Westborough Church types have done--Showing up and demonstrating/protesting at the funerals of dead soldiers killed in our various sorry wars. Anything to get a headline. I don't want to give Jesus advice but this sorry f..ker should not get a pass through the Pearly Gates. Dang, what would Jesus do is a mystery?
