    The good man that turned bad out of necessity

    @Riven do you recognize this photograph? It documents (without being too graphic) the aftermath of Christians killing and wounding fellow Christians, as well as killing and wounding non-Christians, for what you deem to be “the greater good”. Would it have a different impact on you if it...

    The good man that turned bad out of necessity

    Do you understand that your line of thinking in general is an attempt to justify Christians killing fellow Christians? Do you understand that it isn’t God or the Messiah who wants Christians to kill one another? Do you understand that it is the devil who wants Christians to kill one another...
