Jesus taught his followers to abide by the commandments of God and deny self. One of the commandments is extremely homophobic asking that homosexuals be put to death. Other comments in The Bible say not to put faith in mankind, etc. It is a very anti-humanistic theology. It is not liberal.

Is that in Quran, or the Bible? Islamic extreme right radicals think Christians are liberals. They've got the commandments too! Handle that!
True Christians care about humanity, and justice. Who do you think Jesus died for?
Seems like I've heard crap like this somewhere before. Oh, yeah.
"There, in the middle of this mall is the Washington Monument, 555 feet high. But if we put a one in front of that 555 feet, we get 1555, the year that our first fathers landed on the shores of Jamestown, Virginia as slaves.
In the background is the Jefferson and Lincoln Memorial, each one of these monuments is 19 feet high.
Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth president. Thomas Jefferson, the third president, and 16 and three make 19 again. What is so deep about this number 19? Why are we standing on the Capitol steps today? That number 19--when you have a nine you have a womb that is pregnant. And when you have a one standing by the nine, it means that there's something secret that has to be unfolded."
I don't make assumptions about people based on their race or religion. I wait and see who they are. Once someone has made an idiot of themselves however, I don't deal with them.
Unfortunately I believe a large segment of people who identify themselves as christian are not this way. They feel their way is the only way. They think that all muslims are terrorists and all terrorists are muslims. It seems like everytime a really ferverent christian opens their mouth, they give me MORE reasons to distance myself from them.
I have friends who are christian, completely reasonable and caring people, these are not the ones that are the problem in my opinion.

Look up Mary Magdalene.
She was a prostitute who repented and was the first witness to the resurrection.
