John
I don't think Jesus would give his okay to kill innocents or [even] those that meant him harm. He would rather let them kill him than have them killed. He would ask that they be forgiven as he died.
What you espouse sounds an awful lot like what is known as "white trash" hate speak. The reminants of the old southern baptist convention that had the KKK as it's militant arm. You hide behing the words of a teacher that loved all and never instructed harm to anybody.
We can hide behing a suit and tie and a middle class facade - but that don't change what we are.
You may or may not be - and if you are you may or may not change. Jesus never meant his name to be used as a mantra for hate and death. Jesus opposed the oppressive state. He taught tolerance and love for all things. I don't know the Jesus you know. You seem to walk lock step with the state and you are well adept at the rapid fire script your "betters" write for you.
You've admitted you were an "armagedden believer". So was Jim Jones. You have a lot to be proud of.
Imagination is more important than knowledge
