Same could be said about Napoleon. He could have been her boyfriend, poor woman.

No, I don't think Madonna was being referred to here.

There are women that really are attracted to Jesus in more than just a "savior" way.

Of course their are also people that like to live out sexual fantasies of being crucified too.

LOL, well that is a whole other topic for another thread. Sexual behavior and what is good or bad---over the line with pain and such. Why do people need pain to get turned on.

But I have seen Madonna's music videos with the crucifixion incorporated, heck her last live concert she came out on a cross. What the heck is that?

I guess people can have a fixation on most anything, Christianity included.

SHOULD they be? Absolutely!

Does that give you the right to watch them for EVERY instance of "hypocrisy" you can find?

Have you ever read some of the blogs from the "LOVING" liberal left?

I have heard PRIESTS issue death threats to Gun Store owners, for god's sakes!

This is really in poor taste.

I would HAVE to think that if your target was "Religion" in general you wouldn't have called out "Christians"!!

If you had labeled this as "Stupid things that MUSLIMS say", I wonder how fast it would have been locked?
PDQ! IT'S ALWAYS OPEN SEASON ON CHRISTIANS.....ALWAYS HAS BEEN.

I wonder why it's ok for Liberals to constantly judge "Christians" while expecting us to sit by and judge NOTHING?

YES WHY INDEED?

IthinkNOT! · 09-07-2008, 12:05 PM

Because Christians seem to think that it is OK to sit back and watch us and tell us that whatever it is we want to do is not in there beliefs or their bible.

So if you expect to sit back and watch us and hold judgment over us, then why cant we do it to you?

I agree, you can. Am I my brother's keeper? To a certain extent Jesus says yes. That was what our sermon was this Sunday. If you see your brother doing wrong you must take them aside and tell them it is wrong, if he won't listen to you then get others to join you in telling him, if he still doesn't listen then go to the church and get them to help him. If he still won't listen and does not change then it is upon him and not on you if he strays.

But if you do nothing then you also are just as guilty as he and you will need to answer to God.

There is a line between ignoring bad behavior and craming your beliefs down someone's throat. Jesus does not want us to cram our beliefs but to tell others and with good example try to get them back on the right path.

What is the right path----Jesus's path, and that is easy to find if one reads the bible and goes to church. We will have a faith family to learn from and help us.

For those who do not believe then there is nothing Christians can do but to lead by good example. BUT Jesus told us to try. If we do nothing then we are guilty of not caring and God will ask us why.

If I tell you to leave me the frak alone and you go get your friends all to come tell me how wrong I am, that is crossing the line and would likely get you hit in the mouth.

same goes for me.....
I am not a child I don't need a Church going Bible reader to tell me what I am doing wrong!
so to me that would be the same as cramming your beliefs down my throat.

Everybody has free will.That is not determined ultimately by the law of the land.It is instilled in us by God,so that we are not robots.
Ergo,hell is covered under that freedom of choice.Enjoy the trip.

Christians know who to leave alone, at least the smart ones do. LOL God will not hold us accountable for those who will not listen. I don't think you have anything to worry about.

We are told not to cram. Most of these conversations would take place between friends and family. I know my friend tried to talk to her brother who was an alcoholic before he died to change and get help. He did not listen and died at a young age. She did the best she could.

If she had said oh I really don't care, he can do whatever he wants to do, is pretty callous IMO. All of us try to help those in need if we can. God wants us to help people. If they do not want help then we can't be blamed.
