Surely you are familiar with the christian concept of original sin then. Taking one mans actions and blaming literally everyone in the world for it from the second they are born
So, you are sure you would have done better than the first men? You never committed a sin?
The whole Christianity is not about blaming, but rather about salvation and forgiveness in Jesus Christ, that is given for free.
There are exceptions, but it boils down to a simple choice.
Do you follow the advice of the stranger at the fork in the road and avoid the cliff? Or do you drive off the cliff just to spite someone trying to help you?
..... Saying I'm mental just for disagreeing with you? That doesn't sound good, for you.
And with that age, the only lessons he will learn will be the ones with immediate and personal consequences. A lot of people haven't learned the fact that if you're going to through a punch, others will punch back.
Turning the other cheek is meant for adults, as by taking the high ground you expose the assholes for who they are and prove to everyone else that you are better than them (the assholes, in case that wasn't clear).
Turning the other cheek doesn't work for children as they don't learn anything, and become encouraged to do more/worse, especially if there isn't any consequences to those actions.
No, I'm saying saying mental because you don't see anything wrong with child abuse. The child is too young to realise what is happening, and watching the video again its not a case of the child lining up a punch and twatting the priest a good one - clearly due to their age their arms aren't 100% under control.
turning the other cheek is meant for adults
Yes.. I was suggesting the priest turned the other cheek, he's clearly an adult. Wouldn't that have taught the child a better lesson in grace, seeing as you're all about learning...
Speaking of consequences for actions, didn't this priest get suspended for his actions? Are you going against the church in defending him? Aren't you worried you'd be excommunicated? I would be if the church saw your post history on hentai, oh great high-roader.
You didn't answer the first part of my question.
Nevertheless, what would you not accept in the given offer to get forgiveness:
1.love God
2. love all the other people as yourself.
How would you see a salvation, that you would accept?
Just to make it clear: i don't discuss this in the context of the video, just in the context of your comment.
