I read a blog post by John Pavlovitz tonight. It was posted on Facebook.
In this post, he explained why I was not pro-life, only anti-abortion.
Now I understand his thinking, because he's not uncommon.
He is a leader at North Raleigh Community Church, where the Scripture and what God says doesn't really mean anything.
In other words, he's full of crap.
The title of the post is "White, Conservative, Christian Friends - I Wish You Really Were Pro-Life."
He states if I were really pro-life I would...
1. Want to prevent racism, and bigotry, and homophobia.
I don't know about you, but telling me I'm not really "blahblah" because of my lack of melanin, is flat out racist. And bigotry.
2. I'd want kids in the 'bad neighborhood' to have as good an education as MY kids in the 'good neighborhood.
How the hell does he know where my kids live? Or go to school?
And who is he to decide what a good or bad neighborhood is?!
3. I don't care about the mentally ill, the terminally ill, or single parents. (Because I'm white. Don't forget that part.)
PLEASE, PLEASE ask my daughter, and her friends, how I ignore all of them because they were single parents. Do not get me started on not caring about the mentally ill. I will ruin you. I don't get the terminally ill part, but since John thinks anything goes, is he for assisted suicide?
4. I don't want religious freedom for non-Christians.
As long as you're not trying to kill others, through shooting, stabbing, machetes, bombs, abortion, poison, Satanic sacrifice, strangling, etc; and don't mind going to Hell, knock yerself out.
Oh, and I get to witness to you. Because He told me to do so. AND, I get to live my Christianity without your interference.
5. I would be okie-dokie with people living in homosexual lifestyles.
Any so-called Christian who supports that, really, really, REALLY isn't pro-life. They're just too damn lazy and sanctimonious to care about people. Homosexuality destroys people. How can I not want them free?
6. I would see that law enforcement is racist.
I guess cops should keep a daily tally of what color, not who, they arrest in a day. Make sure you have an equal number of brown, white, black, yel... oops. If you arrest three African-American men, two Latin-American men, three Asian-American men, and three privileged white boys, you must arrest at least three more snotty white guys to make it even.
It doesn't matter whom is robbing, looting, shooting, who.
And why don't whities get a better name? British-Americans. Dutch-Americans.
7. Gun control.
How does my gun ownership have anything to do with the Bonannos selling weapons?
Okay, there's more, but I'm getting weary.
NRCC is NOT really a part of the Church. It is like every other group that wants to play christian without the sacrifice and commitment He asks for. The Father will never force you to be obedient. That's why gutter slugs like Pavlovitz get away with their drivel.
I say drivel, but it's not. It's lies from the Pit. And if that offends you, dear Christian, maybe you better examine your self and what you think the Bible says.
Remember; disobedience, though available, comes with an eternity long penalty.
1 Corinthians 6:12,13
12 All things are lawful for me, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be mastered by anything. 13 Food is for the stomach and the stomach is for food, but God will do away with both [i]of them. Yet the body is not for immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord is for the body.
One thing that Pavlovitz said that actually made me surprised, was (and I quote) "I don't celebrate when a woman terminates a pregnancy (I honestly don't know anyone who does)..."
Where has this guy been?
Obviously nowhere near a Planned Parenthood facility.
Or listened to a political platform.
Or spent time with anyone with NOW.
Or explored interviews with Girl Scout leadership
Or been to Poland.
1 Timothy 1:8-11
8 We know that the law is good if one uses it properly. 9 We also know that the law is made not for the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, 10 for the sexually immoral, for those practicing homosexuality, for slave traders and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine 11 that conforms to the gospel concerning the glory of the blessed God, which he entrusted to me.
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10 nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.
Exodus 20:1-6
Then God spoke all these words, saying,
2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.3 “You shall have no other gods before Me.4 “You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth.5 You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me, 6 but showing lovingkindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
1 Samuel 17:50, 51
50 Thus David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone, and he struck the Philistine and killed him; but there was no sword in David’s hand. 51 Then David ran and stood over the Philistine and took his sword and drew it out of its sheath and killed him, and cut off his head with it.When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.
You may not think this is a scripture in favor of gun ownership, but dang it, I'm no good with a rock and a sling!)
Want to know how many times I've been told I have "white privilege"?
No; because I don't have that much time.
Want to know how many jobs I got for being white? None.
How many scholarships did I get for being white? None.
Times I didn't get sucked up by a tornado, because I'm white? None.
Guess how many times being white got me a front row seat in a concert? None.
By the way. I'm not actually "white".
But I am a Christian.
