This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yes. Yes they are. Also, I think a "radical Christian" would be the opposite of the KKK.

I guess I'm a radical Christian then.

I believe Jesus taught tolerance and love, so I try to treat others with tolerance and love. And not fake love like "thoughts and prayers," but real love, which comes with action.

Tolerantly beat the fuck out of those money changers

Lol.

The problem there was that they were defiling his house, disturbing people who were there to worship. Tolerance doesn't mean putting up with bad actors, it means not getting involved in things that don't concern you. Someone else choosing a different religion or lifestyle doesn't concern you, and the direction to love them still applies. Someone persecuting you does impact you, so righteous anger is justified.
