[quote=FlyerInHi]So well put scaredy. That’s how people in foreign countries feel about Christian missionaries. Freedom of religion bullshit. It’s a question of power and economics and culture.
I’m waiting for the day when India, China, Africa are economically strong and they send their missionaries over here, and we are forced to allow them. We will see how the Christians like freedom of speech and religion then.[/quote]
Just for fun, imagine how a single day in your life would be different if everyone followed the 10 Commandments plus “Love thy neighbor as thyself” (both a Christian value and a quote from Leviticus). You can ignore the ones about God for now – we’ll just leave the rest of the theological issues aside. No locks on the doors, no guns, no military, no people living in trash heaps in Los Angeles (http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-riverbed-debris-20180310-story.html) You’d still have to deal with the unavoidable illnesses, negligence, accidents and such but it would be pretty sweet. It would also probably cause an enormous economic depression because we spend a lot of time and money protecting ourselves from those who mean us harm.
And, due to recent developments in China – I doubt religion is going to get a shot in the arm there.
