Conservative & Liberal Problem

What continually crushes conservative Christians is their willingness to transfer the energy created by maintaining lists of sins into a type of moral righteousness… at the expense of its victims.

What continually crushes liberal Christians is their faux anger; their fabricated indignation toward conservatives for doing such a thing when they are presuming moral high ground at the expense of their victims. (e.g., the conservatives)

The conservatives scapegoat the sinner.
The liberals scapegoat those who dare to call people sinners.
And everyone contributes to the surrogate victimizing mechanism until, as G.K. Chesterton said, “The world is all one wild divorce court.”

If we continue with this behavior, we will surely blow ourselves up. But. it. doesn’t. have. to. go. down. that. way. History isn’t already written. God doesn’t already have everything planned out. There’s hope. You and I could still influence this thing if we wanted. It will take a deep commitment to love.
