"But I say to you, do not resist an evil person; but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also."...its in your user manual.
Not to be pedantic, but this verse is basic. Most Christians will have a counter to this verse and it's lost on many of them.
This verse is much more on point:
Here Jesus is, being fucking arrested. And someone pulls a sword to defend Jesus and he tells him to chill.
These people are Christians the same way I am vegetarian. On Sundays only.
The scriptures, if one believes these things, were fulfilled, right? If the reason given not to fight was so that the scriptures would be fulfilled, doesn't that logically leave Christians free to commit any violence, now?
