    Thank you. I despise religious bigotry. So does God as He’s no respecter of persons:

    Acts 10:34-35

    Very thought-provoking video. I always wonder why more time is given to those who promote hate and peddle ignorance than those who promote the beauty of mankind. Kudos to the makers and sharers of the video. God bless you.

    This really hurts my heart that here in the 21st century that we have religious persecution in this country especially by the same people who were persecuted themselves. What is happening to some of us?

    Thanks for the video Chipsticks, desertflower, and Extreme Liberal. It really is eye opening. Religious persecution, racial persecution, sexual orientation persecution, gender persecution and all other kinds of hate infests and destroys society. All people love this country and are loyal to the tenets of this country and should not be made to feel like outsiders because of someone else’s warped mentalities. People who spread all sorts of hate should look into the mirror and recognize that the true monster is looking back at them.

    Stunning, absolutely stunning.

    Yes, it should be put out there, but I ask you, how many would ‘see and hear’?

    And I weep for our country because we are blind and deaf . . .

    Love you Chips,

    Kelly

    I’m so glad that this was meaningful for everyone. Of course, I knew it would be. When I saw this, it took my breath away.Hate is ignorance and fear. We must all work hard against the forces that would divide us. Please take the time to spread this to everyone you know. Peace,love, tolerance and understanding.

    A beautiful and important message.

    Who are these people spewing such filth? Please don’t tell me they call themselves Christians?

      Oh Sue, they most sadly do call themselves Christians, and wrap themselves in that superiority.

      I don’t think that is ‘what Jesus would do’ . . .

        These faux Christians as disparaging the reputation of so many good, decent and faithful people. Why aren’t true Christian leaders speaking up more publically? I know how we act is the greatest measure of what is in our hearts, but I think it is past time for some voices to be raised denouncing this hateful , and very unChrist like campaign against Muslims, and any minority in fact. Seems like no group is beyond trashing these days openly and vehemently.

    My husband and I went to an interfaith service on 9/11 in Portland to show the Muslims and Jews in our community that all Christians are not haters and that we can respect each other and improve our communities together. I’m a lapsed Unitarian who rarely attends church anymore and prefers to celebrate creation in the natural world. This video greatly moved me.
