Terri Schaivo was murdered.All she needed was food and fluids (and, of course, LOVE). Her heart and lung systems (from what I was told) were still fully and independently functional. In other words she still had "the breath of life" in her at the time she was starved/dehydrated. Her secular benefactors seemed to define her life in terms of the presence or absense of higher brain cognitive functions, which they perceived (perhaps conveniently!) as being not there any more. Even so, I don't envy the position her husband was in--trying to decide the fate of someone so seemingly close to death requires TONS of wisdom to make the right choice. |

"Kinnaman says non-Christians' biggest complaints about the faith are not immediately theological: Jesus and the Bible get relatively good marks."Really? How can "Jesus" and "the Bible" get "good marks" from non-believers when Christ himself said all the world will hate you (Christians) because it hates me. John 15:18-19 John 7:7. More likely is that non-believers, in this case, are suffering from the same sentimentality that plagued the Pharasees, who decorated the tombs of the same prophets who condemned their fathers--and would have similarly condemned the Pharasees themselves--even as Jesus did. As for being too "anti-homosexual", is this not rather because of the tremendous ascendancy of this particular sin in our day and not that "Christians" today have become more "judgemental"? The reason Christ himself never preached (directly) against homosexuality is that even the Pharasaic Israel of His day was not so corrupt as our present generation in this and other such areas of sinfulness. Granted, we Christians screw-up from time to time and make asses of ourselves, but calling us "hypocritical", even when it's justified won't ameleorate God's wrath toward the unsaved. All men everywhere need to repent and believe. |
