1. Conservative Christians really hate that verse. |
|
My old boss from a prior job was a fundie Baptist, and he spoke with venom and derision at that verse.

3. Yup, there's quite a few choice verses that conservatives try to ignore. |
|
I especially love how they quote one part of Leviticus admonishing homosexuality, while ignoring the same admonitions against wearing mixed-fabric clothing, or eating shell-fish.
Seems some verses are more stressed than others, while others are selectively ignored.

6. Sadly they all ignore 1 Thessalonians 4:11 |
|
1 Thessalonians 4:11 (NIV) Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you
Yes, the Bible tells Christians to be quiet and mind their own business. But I don't imagine even 0.00001% of them have read that verse, let alone live by it.

So some despicable charlatan said otherwise? So what?
