Ill never understand the person who can be christian and not hold christian values. Probably just a result of never facing consequence or having any standards.

There are at least 2 different major sets of "Christian values" that are largely at odds with each other.

"...and that's when jesus picked up his AK-47 and shot every child in the school. Amen."

It is almost like the value many ( not all ) christians see in christianity isn't the ethics but instead the ease at which they can mark the trait of non-christian and classify it as unclean , evil, and less than. Not that the Bible is the 'best' ethical document to begin with but my hot take is that most people look for systems that let them feel better about themselves for the least amount of effort.

Most people have probably already heard the good news, but it is our sacred duty to ensure everyone hears the gospel of Supply-side Jesus.

Republican Jesus said, "Love thy neighbor. Unless they're gay. Or brown. Or Muslim. Or Jewish. Or a woman. You know what, forget it, to hell with your neighbor. And fuck you too."
