How has Hollywood and the Mass Media brainwashed Christians?

Believe what the Bible SAYS and do not accept what people wish you to accept.

 

[tacomancer]

By playing into their ethnic grievances.

You know, you can't go to the trouble of printing out every single combination of the Powerball Lottery on 746 sheets of paper, and when the
balls are picked, run screaming with joy exclaiming: OMG!..I could have hit the Lottery if I had played that number!

 

[Airyaman]

I agree to some extent. Some people are of the false belief that you can be a member of any Abrahamic religion and be gay. Get real folks, Yahweh hates gay people. It's all throughout the books the sheepherders wrote.

If gay people would stop pretending Christianity is tolerant of them, more and more would leave this repressive religion behind.

Good riddance.

What does the Bible say about homosexuality, slavery and clean/unclean animals? It seems that some of what the (OT) Bible says is supposed to be taken as an unchangeable absolute (word of God?) while other things are changed over time based on the flimsiest of later (NT) inferences.

Let's get one thing correct, GOD loves people, but not all behaviors. GOD through Christ will accept anyone where he is; however, GOD will then start HIS work to change that individual to become more CHRISTLIKE.

How do you think Hollywood and the media have brainwashed Christians? Many of them? Most of them? A few of them?

And have you watched any of "The Chosen"?

Your god might, but the god the bible depicts does not.

And by what you said, you mean what exactly?

I mean the Bible is full of horrible, insane cruelty plus some nice stories. One can't pick and chose the ones that are valid.

And have you watched any of "The Chosen"?

No, I have not watched any of THE CHOSEN. I have a hard time dealing with "artistic license". That is not to say there is or there isn't in this show; however, I do find that producers have a very difficult time sticking to the ORIGINAL script (The BIBLE Text) without improvising. When has Hollywood showed Homosexuality in a bad light recently? They "Homosexuals" are always smart, witty, cleaver, artistic, misunderstood, good, kind, sweet, suffering, victimized ----- who doesn't have some personal issues in real life that are not one's own fault?

 

[LittleNipper]

Your god might, but the god the bible depicts does not.

And where is that exactly. GOD does deal with some very nasty people. Judgement is never easy to swallow.

Psalm 11:5

5 The Lord examines the righteous,
but the wicked, those who love violence,
he hates with a passion.​

Psalm 11:5​

5 The Lord examines the righteous,​

And? You said your god doesn't hate people.

Are you asserting that “those” does not refer to people rather than behavior?

 

[LittleNipper]

And? You said your god doesn't hate people.

GOD died for everyone, so that they might be saved. HOWEVER, HIS justice requires that those that reject HIS SALVATON will fall under judgement/condemnation. GOD does HATE those who live by violence or to be violent.

So when your god's people slaughtered women and children, did he hate those who did the killing?

 

[LittleNipper]

PSALM 5:5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all aworkers of iniquity.

Should a GOD of LOVE promote iniquity (unfair behavior)?

 

[LittleNipper]

So when your God's people slaughtered women and children, did he hate those who did the killing?

The murderers reaped what they sowed.

 

[Elora]

Eh, the OP simply proves further what John said long ago...

"the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one" 1 John 5:19

 

[LittleNipper]

Proverbs 6:16-19

​

16 There are six things the Lord hates,
seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a false witness who pours out lies
and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.

I don't know what you want me to say here? DO YOU ASPIRE TO EMULATE PEOPLE LIKE THIS?

 

[Airyaman]

The murderers reaped what they sowed.

You said your god hated violent people. When your god's people killed women and children, they did so using violence. So your god really doesn't hate violent people, just people that aren't his followers.

There are two real choices in life and no more. Either one wishes to follow GOD. Or one is a child of the devil. Which is your choice? The issue is of eternal consequences.

Ah, so you no longer support the idea that your god doesn't hate anyone. Good for you.
