@ArishMell I never said anything about hate. I don't have to hate someone to want to be separate from them. Look at the Amish, They do not hate others, but they choose to live amongst themselves and keep to themselves. The issue is that the ways of the world are wicked. If you want to continue to murder innocent babies, shoot down unarmed black men, promote unnatural sexual practices, spread STDs, spread Covid, mass incarcerate, etc, go ahead, just leave us out of it!

@RocktheHouse Those wrongs you list there are undeniably evil; but then you make a sweeping, nasty accusation about everyone else.
You can NOT lump all those who do not follow your version of Christianity with those wrong-doers.
I do not believe in your god, which seems a rather callous lord of a very exclusive heaven, but neither am I a VD-riddled murderer, thank you very much!
Besides, Christian and other faiths' institutions have hardly led pristine lives of saintly goodness through the centuries, either.
