North Carolina pastor arrested after police say he tried to push wife's coworker into McDonald's deep fryer
I'm biased (a Christian myself), but the Christians I know are not violent, probably because they're at least half-decent human beings who at least try to practice what they say they believe (which doesn't include deepfry oil).
I know a handful of nuts, some claim to be Christian, some don't. Of the ones that claim to be Christian, none I know actually seem to live anything close to what they spout off. As a general trend in my circles, they're the loudest about their faith, the most political/patriotic (either side, but usually right leaning), and most likely to force their beliefs on others. The ones that don't claim to be Christians are pretty similar, just less hypocritical (opinionated, but not religious).
The issue is that anyone can claim to be a Christian, and as a Christian it's not for me to judge and say if they really are genuine or not.
All that to say, this article is a great example of not living out a good Christian faith, at all.
Still though, those violent people exist and your belief system enables them.
As long religious superiority exists, so will the terror of religion.
Why are you a bot account?
Also, I hear you. You don't see it often but it's because it isn't reported when a Christian does good Christian things, like volunteer, help people, etc.
Just as the right sees the LGBT community and only eats up the horrible news, ironically the Christians are seen that way to the left. Neither side sees the other in good light.
