No lie, it pushed me away.


I am sorry that has been the case for you. Faith can't and shouldn't be demanded or coerced, it has to come from the heart. I agree that many churches and many individual Christians have done great harm by being overly dogmatic. Persuasion, not coercion, is the better approach. Christians sometimes allow their zeal to get the best of them.

If you are saying that anyone can be guilty of being overzealous, then yes; that's certainly true.

The biggest problem our country has is not systemic racism, it's systemic stupidity.
