Fooling Christians into believing they were supposed to be giant pussies who allow demons to walk over them was part of the reason America became fucked up.
I'm so glad real Christians are starting to step up, speak their minds, and calling out the fake Christians infiltrating Churches.
Agreed. That gets into the topic of how "love" should mean "what is best for you" not "whatever you want," something people increasingly refuse to understand.
Coincidentally, what's best for my enemies is for me to defeat them.

A lot of the NT talk about loving your "brother" actually translates as "fellow believer" not "people."
It's a guide for community-building ("you gotta get along, guys, you live together") not instructions to surrender to the prince of this world.
Yep.
It's Scofield-esque 'Judeo-Christianity' and deliberate mistranslations all the way down most places.
Christianity is practically counterculture at this point.
Tbf, Jesus also said to love your enemies. That doesn't mean abandon your moral principles, but it is important to throw out there.

Want to know what Christ's love looked like? Six words.
"Go forth, and sin no more."
Shortened to 3 words:
"Stop being retarded."
