AC,

who understands Christianity in the same way my budgie understands time dilation, tells Christians they aren't doing Christianity right.

If you don't understand a religion, you can't critique it. Or your can, but you can't critique it without making a fool of yourself. Exhibit A.... AC.

"Thou shalt not kill, Love your enemy." That came from the mythical Moses, not Jesus you dumb schmuck.

Supporting Israel isn't anti-Christian. Israel and the Jews are a nation under threat of destruction but a fanatical, nihilistic group of murderers. Israel and the Jews are exactly the type of people Christians, indeed all right-minded people, should be defending.

AC, failing to understand Christianity in the slightest, thinks Christians should support a group who don't love their enemy but love raping and murdering their enemy. Christianity couldn't possibly support anyone who perpetrated 7 October or anyone who supports what happened on 7 October.

AC is so blinded by his antisemitism that he will neither understand nor consider that

As for the 29 year old first-term Labor Senator from WA -
Fatima Payman?

Australia's first hijab-wearing Senator told reporters that
her family did not flee Afghanistan for her to remain silent
in the face of atrocity.

She was indefinitely suspended from the Labor caucus for
threatening to again cross the floor. On Monday, she
complained that the party had forced her into "exile."

As a result she ended up resigning from the Labor Party.
She gave the explanation :

"Witnessing our government's indifference to the greatest
injustice of our times makes me question the direction the
party is taking."

As a result she's received death threats and emails that were
very confronting, especially when it involved her family.

It's unfortunate that this has come to pass. Political parties
in Australia expect their members to abide by the rules on
issues where the party has taken a certain stance. I recall
Penny Wong having to go with the party against same-sex
marriage initially. The party later changed its stance.
However, Wong complied with the initial stance.

Senator Payman was not able to do that regarding the Palestinian
issue. To her it was more important than playing by party rules.

She explained that the topic of Palestinians is a matter that
has impacted anyone with a conscience. She said that it's
not a matter of Jews versus Muslims. It's a matter about
humanity, about freedom, about equality and that there are
people on both sides who want to see this conflict come to an
end. That there are universal principles that all of us
stand for.

She also asked why would anyone assume that just because she's
a Muslim woman she can only care about Muslim issues?
She said that this issue impacts us all and that she intended
to represent her electorate fairly on all issues - not just
select Muslim ones - as an Independent Senator.

I wish her well.

AC

It's always the people who run down Christianity, who are not Christians, who are always telling actual Christians how they should behave. Worse, they expect to be taken seriously.

Actual Christians?

Do all churches teach the Christianity of Christ?

The pure religion of Jesus Christ seems to be totally
neglected by many religious leaders. There are scores
of different ideologies and teachings that are now
coming to the fore.

It's high time that someone pointed out what "true"
Christianity is all about.

The most bloody wars in all human history have been waged
primarily in Europe, the very heart of Western "Christian"
civilization. We've had the "Holy Wars", the " Crusades".
What about "Love your enemies"?

The name of Christ is often misused.

"AC, failing to understand Christianity in the slightest"
- Lol.

Maybe not, but I've had plenty to deal with people who claim to be Christians
By and large, many are horrible hypocrites.
They think they're shite don't stink BUT IT DOES
And they're certainly no better than any other decent non-Christians.
They're a little weird, and the more devout, the more weird.
Till you get to the extremes, people going to bible study twice a week, tellingbme The Simpsons are 'work of the devil' blubbering in tongues and screaming fire and brimstone from the pulpit.
At it's core it's more like a crazy cult.

Pffft.
I was never all that impressed by it all honestly.
