Jesus wasn't a racist

David Gerrold

Jesus wasn't a racist. There's nothing in the bible to justify racism.

If you're a racist, you're not a Christian.

Jesus wasn't a homophobe either. There's nothing in the bible to justify homophobia. (Honest. It's been badly mistranslated.)

If you're a homophobe, you're not a Christian.

Jesus wasn't a bigot. He told us to love one another. He told us to forgive. He told us to feed the poor and heal the sick.

If you're practicing hatred and bigotry, if you're not practicing love for your neighbor, if you're not helping the poor and the sick, you're not a Christian.

Jesus told us to welcome strangers. He told us not to pray loudly in the streets. He told us to be humble in spirit, generous in nature.

If you're not doing those things, you're not a Christian.

So don't ever try to claim that your Christian religious beliefs justify acting like an asshole.

Jesus despised hypocrites. He said so, loud and clear.
