see how much Christians can love?

i don't even know this person (it was one of those "friend of a friend" deals), and admittedly, i haven't read this entire entry, but just enough to feel angry and saddened.

this is supposedly how a Christian shows love?

yeah, i could go on for a while here on how much more harm than good this person is doing (it's just adam blaming eve). but i won't.

the big picture here is that too often, Christians struggle with something, and instead of just owning up to their own human vices, they talk down to others and make judgments on people who probably just need acceptance.

you'll never change anyone by telling them how bad they are. but you can have an effect on someone just by loving them for who they are, and what they do.

in the process, maybe both parties will end up changed for the better. (instead of just one sinner kicking sand in the face of another sinner)
