From December 1-25, I’m sharing a quote and its truth from John Fugelsang’s Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person’s Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists and Flock-Fleecing Frauds, the book Robert and I are currently and fascinatingly reading.
An odd Advent Calendar, of sorts.
Today Fugelsang explains that “Belief in Jesus doesn’t mandate discrimination or hatred against different faiths; the teachings of Jesus forbid it.” p. 261
“’Love your neighbor as yourself’ (Matthew 22:39). Note the lack of an asterisk on this commandment, which means it applies to all humanity, without regard to said neighbor’s religion, race, or background.” p. 261
