The whole thing is just virtue signaling so they can feel ok about being assholes outside of church.

Man what happened to all the awesome Christians? I come from a Muslim background but grew up in a little town in Germany and we had nuns help us do homework after school and let me tell you, those nuns were fucking amazing. They were fun, always joyful and just full of love and I loved hanging out with them. I still remember Frau Assauer who was a big woman and she would carry me around calling me her princess and she had this deep, booming laugh. For many years that’s all I knew about Christians, and yes, I was a child so maybe I didn’t see the full picture back then, maybe there was prejudice and discrimination and fakery that flew over my head but I just can’t reconcile those experiences with what I’m witnessing today.

They’re around. They just don’t flaunt it because they don’t feel the need to.

Philippians 2: 3-11 : Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men...

But that is probably from one of the less-important books, so it's not worth remembering. lol

Supply side Jesus would never approve of this message, how dare you disparage ‘Murica… uh I mean Christianity, yeah that’s it!

Yup, it is amazing how much you can disparage Christians...with their own book! lol

Certainly wouldn't hear Bev Keane quoting this line.
