ranting.

On humanity, Love, Christians and Epic Fail.

When all is said and done, at the end of the day, Humans are human.
They makes us angry, happy, annoyed, scared, and all sorts of emotions.
Some brag, some insult, some act arrogant, all signs of either insecurity and/or various psychological complexes. This is human too.

Now to address my fellow Christians:
There is NO REASON to get pissed off at people for being human.
Our ... orders, if you will, are simple.

1) Love Unconditionally
God loves EVERY-FREAKEN-BODY. Quit complaining about other people when you see/hear them sinning. Leave that to God to deal with. He DID NOT give us the right to condemn others. We are only to correct other brothers and sisters in Christ when they are sinning. Not the rest of the world. Leave that to GOD. Just leave it.
This doesn't mean we can't get mad at them or be upset - That is a normal human feeling. HOWEVER, discussing, gossiping (which is a sin) or blogging about people and their sin it crosses a line. How would you like to have your faults broadcast all over the web, the work place, etc.?
You may be thinking its not the same thing. Bull freaken shit. You pretend to be the perfect person with no faults when you point out others, but you create for all other Christians an even bigger fault and paint us a color that we are not. To the outside you become no better, if not worse, than they are.
You can say, "Oh I'm not perfect" or "I know I'm not perfect". Could have fooled me when you start talking about other people's shit. Honestly, I am sick of my fellow Christians not even attempting to curb one of the most widely spread issues of talking about others.

2) Worship God
Self explanatory.

3) Obey God.
Sometimes we need to take a step or two back from our lovely academia of theology.
It seems to me that most theology has screwed us over and made more than half the problems we have with each other today.
Tying back in to number one - love unconditionally. This means love EVERYBODY (in case you missed that the first part) as the disclaimer of most things have to be: Regardless of race, gender, sexuality, hair color, eye color, personality type, hygiene, political affiliation etc...
You need to realize we undermine the message of Christ's whole purpose of being here by judging and ridiculing and condemning other people because of what they do or say. If they choose to follow God, then GOD will tell them what to do and if they love God as we say we do they'll obey what he tells them.
Remember the vision Peter had about the unclean animals being lowered and told to eat?
Do you remember what that was supposed to mean?
Well it sure as hell ain't something you people preach about very often. Maybe you should go back and take a look.
Seems to me that after Peter had that vision he went to visit the unclean Gentile Roman to deliver God's words to him and his family.
We Christians are acting like Jews vs Gentiles instead the gentiles are people we treat as unclean because they act, do, say something different.
I'm not just referring to sexuality issues.
I've been misjudged by other Christians because of my personal style. Quite frankly this judging people based on what you see is crap and we aren't supposed to be like that. How many times are we gonna forget that and how many times are punk upstarts like me are gonna have to yell at the rest of y'all?
Honestly people. EPIC FAIL!!!!!
Simple command: Love one another and love the Lord your God. This is the simplest and only two things God really asks of us. It is NOT THAT COMPLICATED! Condemning and judging are not in line with these commands. If you all got the stick out of your butts, the wax out of your ears and the blindfold of jargon and dogma off your eyes you'd see that and REMEMBER.
But no!
Even pastors are making the Epic in Epic Fail in obeying God's laws. You are in a position of leadership. Quit screwing up and make an attempt to love without condemning.
"I'm not condemning anyone" You may be saying. Well guess what? Any time you poke fingers at people's wrong doings you are condemning. People know whether or not something is wrong. You're not supposed to be the ones who rub the puppy's nose in their poo. People aren't dogs. You don't need to do that. Resist the urge. Quit it.
We're only supposed to love them. I know going above and beyond is normally good in the work force...but go about and beyond in your loving others. Do not try to do God's job for God. Not your place. God's. Not yours. Get it?

Now, that being said...I will stop for today.
