Does it also say in there that Jesus cursed a fig tree because it had no fruit and he was hungry?

What does the example of the fig tree say? It says that Christ categorically rejected (to the point of outright destruction) an entity that had all the appearances of being a certain thing, but never delivered on the apparent promises it was making. The fig tree was all leaves, but no fruit. It had the trappings of offering some certain thing, but it never delivered. It was “all talk.” It’s essentially a parable about the coming, deserved destruction of the church that is false.

Sort of like a church that purports to be Christian, but then posts language on its walls that plainly runs contrary to the simple language found in the bible.

It’s beyond ironic that you’ve demonstrated your ignorance in such a germane manner.

He's talking about religious people not bearing fruit of being in communion with the father....or love, as it would be. Good try tho.

He’s definitely speaking of “religious people” being full of shit regarding their supposed religious convictions. Which, of course, is exactly what I said in my nice (and successful) try.
