Christian calling?
Tonight, I saw an ABC News story that blew my mind.
There is a conservative Christian telephone company out there that is calling people, using tele-marketers, telling them that Sprint, AT&T, and MCI support pornography and sex. And besides that, they tell people that if you don't like the issue of gay marriage, or if you don't like gays in general, then you should use their telephone service... because they don't either.
This is one of the many examples of right wing extremism, via conservative Christians, that is giving Christianity a bad name.
When I went to Sunday school, Jesus was a lover, not a hater. I also remember some stuff about not judging others, accepting everyone as you want to be accepted, etc. I'm tired of people making me feel like I'm not Christian because I don't hate homosexuals. It's ridiculous.
I'm not going to link to the company's web site, because I don't want to give them any business, or their web site any hits. The "busniness" is called United American Technology, and you can look it up on your own if you need proof that it exists. Since when is it a united American ideal to promote hate and bigotry? Since when is it an American ideal to be slanderous towards other companies? I think I just puked in my mouth several times over.
I'm not going to let companies or people like this destroy the positive things about Christianity. Let it be known... I am a Christian, and I accept and embrace homosexuals.
