Monotheism
Despite the desire to believe in a single God, people have a strong tendency towards polytheism.
Modern Christianity
When Jerry Falwell, Jr defended Trump by saying Jesus was the only perfect candidate, he wasn’t talking about a compassionate, loving Jesus.
Inclusion
Jesus cared for others; he was inclusive in his care and love. The actions of many modern Christians towards the poor and powerless don’t seem to mirror the teachings and actions of Jesus.
Paulianity
If it wasn’t for St. Paul, there would be no Christianity. But with Paul, Christianity became a religion about Jesus rather than a religion that focused on the message of Jesus.
Wishful Thinking
Early Christians struggled to understand why Jesus had to die. One of the answers they came up with was that Jesus died to atone for our sins. I’ve always thought that answer is much too easy and convenient.
