“Jesus wouldn’t spend 100 million making fascism seem benign”
Hits the nail on the head.
Right out the gate too many who wave the Jesus banner, don’t have an ounce of the Jesus Spirit within themselves, you know, love thy neighbor, share with the less fortunately, and all that jazz.
7:00 “America needs a deep embrace of the virtues of Christ”
I listen to the video and it seems to me he’s discussing what Jesus is supposed to represent - and that bringing the name of ‘Jesus’ into it brings unavoidable divisiveness from those of other faiths.
Agape love is love at the highest level. It’s so much more than we could ever dream or imagine. It is selfless, sacrificial love is spoken of over 200 times in the Bible.
What about a universal faith?
Or what about appreciating that all our gods come from within us and that we need an entirely different mindset to achieve the ideals religions are supposed to help us pursue.
Beyond that, seems to me, any faith, or frame of mind for that matter, that doesn’t make appreciation and love of Earth a central theme, is doomed to human pettiness.
