The Problem with Christianity August 2008

"The real problem with Christians is that we think Jesus was faking it.  Meaning, we all lie to each other because that must've been what he did.  Otherwise we would man up and confront each other like the Bible tells us to, instead of lying and making others think we are the victim." 

I really do believe that somewhere along the way we were brainwashed to think that Jesus just perfected the art of ignoring people's bad character traits or poor choices because telling them to change would've been....mean!   Since when was 'honest' a synonym with 'mean'....oh yeah, since we started lying to each other all the time.  

I've just decided that I'd rather err on the side of being honest with people and hurting their feelings.  If I'm confronting you the way the Bible says I should, and you react poorly--that's on you.  I'm sorry if you don't like the truth, but if its the truth that ball is out of my court.
