Christianity Is At Its Best When It

God Doesn't Want To Change The World Without You.

The Catholic Understanding Has Been That The Death Penalty Has Been Become, Like, Outdated Because In Industrialized Countries. We Have Other Ways Of Protecting Societies From Dangerous People Without Killing Them. And In Fact, It's Important To Remember That Much Of The World Has Done Away With The Death Penalty.

The End Of War Begins With People Who Believe That Another World Is Possible And That Another Empire Has Already Interrupted Time And Space And Is Taking Over This Earth With The Dreams Of God.

We Do Need To Be Born Again, Since Jesus Said That To A Guy Named Nicodemus. But If You Tell Me I Have To Be Born Again To Enter The Kingdom Of God, I Can Tell You That You Have To Sell Everything You Have And Give It To The Poor, Because Jesus Said That To One Guy, Too. But I Guess That's Why God Invented Highlighers, So We Can Highlight The Parts We Like And Ignore The Rest.

Karl Barth Said It Well: "we Have To Read The Bible In One Hand... And The Newspaper In The Other." Our Faith Should Not Cause Us To Escape This World But To Engage It.
