Not to be angry about this is to relinquish one's own humanity!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00911508564944498065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5434327769093668747.post-51740564019680934222021-04-19T15:47:12.570-04:002021-04-19T15:47:12.570-04:00It is important to note that those around Jesus ca...It is important to note that those around Jesus carried swords with them. I doubt if Jesus would tell owners of automatic weapons not to have them, but to use them responsibly. <br />Would it be too much to ask for the UMC - or yourself - to actually denounce the violent rhetoric that comes from groups like Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and those who would defund the police and use violence to do it? How about denouncing Maxine Waters, whose speech could certainly be interpreted to invite violent protest. It is interesting to note what happened when our previous President, who asked for peaceful protest, was accused of - yet Waters is accused of nothing.<br /><br />It is time for the UMC to stop being politically correct and to denounce violence - especially black on black violence, which is rampant. Don't dodge the issue, but be bold enough to say what needs to be said. Guns don't walk outside by themselves and attack people, it takes bad people to do bad things with guns. <br /><br />But bad things have also been done with cars, fire, bombs, knives, sticks, rope - and religion. Let's put them blame where the blame partly belongs, in the communities where it happens and it is allowed. Mr Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06158712376688011428noreply@blogger.com
