I read the March 29 Clergy View, “A Sanctuary State for Evil,” on the Religion page of the Dispatch. My first reaction was how could anyone professing to be a Christian promote such prejudicial and hate filled ideas? No wonder Christianity has gotten a bad name!
The Christianity that I believe in professes that the love of God and Jesus is for everyone, no exceptions. To target abortion, gays and transgender folks as being evil fits into the parameters of evil in my view. I believe God put us here on earth to be in a loving relationship with all people and all of creation. That is our simple, but not easy, task as Christians. I hope others will join me in rejecting the author's narrow minded and dangerous ideas regarding Christian theology.
