(Now, I was really surprised by this quote) |
Yeah, that is what really weirded me out about these people as well - they tolerated Louis' presence there, asking questions of them - they were annoyed of course and they argued with him, and evaded questioning at any possible turn, but they didn't berate him or go out of their way to humiliate him even though they claimed to view him as a vile outsider equal with pretty much everyone their sermon of hatred details as being an 'enemy of God'. Perhaps it had everything to do with the camera or him giving them publicity, but it really seems to me that they truly lacked the courage behind their convictions - it seems to me that people who are truly zealous in their crusade of spreading hatred and intolerance would engage in violent behaviour rather than just say that the wrath of God will strike their enemies down. But perhaps they are simply not violent people at all - perhaps they truly are adhering to biblical conduct - no matter how absurd it may seem - and are, scripturally, some of the most devout Christians out there.
Their message may be wholly and utterly wrong, but perhaps they truly are spreading the literal word of an ancient book. Contemporary Christians try to argue and to justify their sparse morals with sayings of peace and love and accordance to what the most common interpretations of Jesus' word might be - but perhaps that is just another form of brainwashing that has gathered much more hysteria than another - perhaps Jesus Christ truly was an intolerant excuse of a human being with seething convictions and hatred in his heart for all who went against "the word of God". There's plenty of wrath to be cited in any translation of that book. But perhaps Christ's message was that of a sort of lunatic passivity - one of sheepish action but fiery thoughts and zeal for self-righteousness. Everyone thinks Jesus was such a loving and peaceful human but who told you that? Perhaps he was a bigot piece of shit and his martyrdom has been altered over two thousand years to make his presence far more appealing to the globalised masses.
