Modern evangelical Christianity as an organization has done more towards helping the poor and suffering around the world than any other organization in the world, religious or political. Just look at the stats. And how do you know what any of us do to help the suffering in the REAL world outside of this forum?
And I acknowledge that the church, including evangelicals, does in fact do a lot of real and needed work in the world and among the poor. That is why the church is in fact an essential part of our world, and why many who complain about it would also truly miss it should it suddenly disappear. Nevertheless, that does not change the fact that many of the evangelicals here on this site in their conversations here present ideas and attitudes that do not acknowledge compassion for the word or for others, but rather the opposite.My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26
This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

They can do all that while complying with: "No name calling in this thread, please. Posts must be on topic and not about my person."

And before you go on a rampage against me personally, I'm calling out my own violations as well as others. I am NOT saying I haven't done the same thing.
So I ask the question of ALL: Why do WE who name the name of Christ find it necessary to be rude, nasty, cruel, demeaning, etc when we are expressing what we believe to be true in these conversations?My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26
