For with what judgement ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete,it shall be measured to you again." Matthew 7:1-2These people are not Christians. Biblicalists maybe, but not disciples of Christ. Christ taught people to accept and to love everyone, not to pick and choose who we love, and He certainly NEVER taught anyone to hate.This couple maybe religious in some ways, following the writing's in the old testament and Paul's later, less than salubrious attempts at self-aggrandisement, but they don't seem to have taken on board the most basic of teachings of the man they claim to follow.I've had a huge crisis of faith lately, mainly due to bigots such as this. I've found it increasingly difficult to follow the words of Christ, as so many of his so-called followers seem hell-bent on destroying my life, and the lives of my friends.This couple don't need hating or legal jurisprudence to silence them though, they need pity, support, and tolerance in order to become less hateful and more full of Christ's Spirit.That's my tuppence wotrh anyway.
