love thy neighbor....

as long as he's a christian, that is!

i just read this..... and i want to vomit already!! and they'll know we are christians by our love? 'yeah, and if our love doesn't impact them, we'll resort to berating them because of their sinful lives!! wow, it's a good thing we're perfect!'

this, my friends, is where christianity gets a bad name:


Malhotra says her Christian faith compels her to speak out against homosexuality. But the Georgia Institute of Technology, where she's a senior, bans speech that puts down others because of their sexual orientation.

With her lawsuit, the 22-year-old student joins a growing campaign to force public schools, state colleges and private workplaces to eliminate policies protecting gays and lesbians from harassment. The religious right aims to overturn a broad range of common tolerance programs: diversity training that promotes acceptance of gays and lesbians, speech codes that ban harsh words against homosexuality, anti-discrimination policies that require college clubs to open their membership to all.

The Rev. Rick Scarborough, a leading evangelical, frames the movement as the civil rights struggle of the 21st century. "Christians," he said, "are going to have to take a stand for the right to be Christian."
