Preaching exclusion – how does that work?

REAL TALK from KB: I just read something by a good "Christian" that makes me think more and more that the term is an oxymoron.....sad thing is most good Christians are not in a place to hear that about themselves..not saying that I have a stellar faith walk but I'm not hiding behind the word to support a personal agenda.....the person stated something to effect of we shouldn't tax hard working folks to support those who refuse to work.

The good Christian didn’t see the hidden bias and hinted bigotry in their proclamation. There is also an implied but not blatant racism in the statement. The good Christian failed to see the lack of compassion and empathy in their statement. Thinking only of dollars rather that what their fellowman is experiencing. What the good Christian didn’t acknowledge is a system in place that keeps people locked in a cycle of poverty.

There are very few people who just refuse to work….if people could just get up and get jobs many more people would be working….but that person is mad about that too……..Obama created jobs and unemployment is at its lowest number in many years…but people are mad that they have to kick in for healthcare. A universal precaution and should be right for the betterment of all.

There are people who have made stupid mistakes and poor choices that landed them in jail for a period of time but now they are locked in a system that is content on keeping them a prisoner.

It often strikes me as funny how people tend to forget their own failures but are quick to club you with their success. To these good Christians I say find a different name to call yourselves something different , possibly call yourselves IANS, because there is no CHRIST in what you preach, teach or demonstrate.

Don’t confuse a class system with a  caste system and call it “traditionalism” … when it’s really colonialism and castigation


How ya livin’?
