abridged

These are my thoughts, although so abridged it could almost be unjustified. Read them with an open heart and mind, like you so preach yourself.

One of the things I find so annoying about the world today is the way so many religious people act that is so far from the actual concept of the religion itself, which causes the birth of all these modernistic, new generation, 'anti-religion' people. Look at the both of you! Sneering at each other, judging each other, both claiming superiority over the other! You are as bad as the religious folk you so despise!

No wonder the anti-religious are so oppressed towards the simple, pure JOY of the gospel!! They branch into these self-absorbed, independent groups who think that whatever they do is entirely up to them because it is their lives to live, and will not affect the people around them. They become so arrogant and opinionated that they force everybody around them to accept them for who they "truly are" and spin all sorts of excuses for the people that are so morally twisted in today's society, casting whatever society they are in into a deeper downward spiral. The religious people spat acid into their own faces! I cannot stand this!

I agree - religion today is so corrupted till it has become its own antithesis, so focused on rigid practices, condescending thoughts, and looking down upon others in the superior air these religious people think they have.

I preach the 'gospel' - whose meaning is just 'good news' (in old english). I preach the good news of Jesus. That is all. He has done everything. There is nothing else for you to "achieve," unlike those religions where you have to accomplish a certain number of tasks in a certain level of depth before you can "achieve eternal bliss."
That is all. The gospel is not a "law," or a set of rules, or responsibilities and expectations that we must conform to. Be rid of our Pharisaic acts.
