@rajk999 saidQuote this doctrine and tell me what church you are going to for that. Now the Bible says a few things about sin, is that what you are referring to?
I do not subscribe to your church doctrine that all people are filthy sinners, neither to the other equally stupid doctrine that all sins are equal or the same. Those doctrines were not taught in the bible. There are certain sins that God particularly detests. Certain sins caused the fall on mam, other sins necessitated the flood, some caused the destruction of Sodom and ...[text shortened]... and judge between sins the way God and Christ have described, will claim that all sins are the same.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidI wasn't expecting the Spanish Inquisition.
Or those who punish in His name.
I know you meant today's Christians. And you're right. I just couldn't resist.

@suzianne saidYes, He saves those who turn to Him too, but those who don't are left to give an account of their lives. Making all of us guilty as charged, and in need of help without exception. So identifying some segment as worthy of judgment will always be accurate, but it neglects the whole.
But, aren't we all "sinners", according to you?

@my2sons saidVictims unless they are defending themselves while an attack is taking plane, do not get to take the law into their own hands and enact vengeance. The rule of law must be respected and enforced on a level playing field!
