you may not want to praise me just yet...

don't get it twisted. i am a follower of the one Christ. i'm just able to admit that being "washed in the blood" does not make one perfect or free you from being able to do just as much evil as any other. far too many don't realize the responsibility of the individual to turn away from sinfulness. despite what some might say, it (this walk) is an ACTIVE process and not at all about "waiting for God to come save you".

it's funny because sometimes i wonder why folk (believers and non-believers) are so quick to dismiss the fact that the bible says that Christianity CALLS one to change, but doesn't insure that one will.

ultimately, there is no reason to dislike Christainity beyond the actions of those who claim it while missing the point of it. which, by the way is true of a whole lot of other things too (all men are dogs, all white people are devils, all women are god dggers and all THAT type of mess).
