The "fire department did the right and Christian thing,” professed the American Family Association's Brian Fischer in the aftermath of the South Fulton Fire Department’s refusal to respond to the call of a fire at the residence of the Cranick family in Obion, TN.
I am sorry, sir, but your idea of a “right and Christian thing” has absolutely nothing in common with the Christian faith I have professed and taught for over 40 years, and is far off the mark of the faith Jesus of Nazareth professed and what the church has taught over the centuries.
A compassion-less Christianity is an oxymoron – claimed by obviously ignorant morons.
To try to say that the Kingdom of God is not based upon compassion is to totally misread or intentionally misstate the entire Christian message of the New Testament.
Reread again the parable of the Good Samaritan and explain again exactly how standing by watching a family in pain and DOING NOTHING when it is within your power to alleviate the pain is a “right and Christian thing.”
If you do nothing else, listen to what Jesus says about that
