I'm not saying I deny the words of Paul. I'm putting them in their proper context. He had specific advice, to specific people, to advance the Gospel. To take them out of that context is a disservice to the Bible, and it's message. Paul is clear that meeting evil with evil is itself a disservice to Jesus, and his message as the Messiah.

"There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."

To speak to 1 Peter chapter 3, you ignore the part where husbands are to dedicate themselves to their wives, and the part about repaying evil with good

"3 Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, 2 when they see the purity and reverence of your lives. 3 Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. 4 Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight. 5 For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to adorn themselves. They submitted themselves to their own husbands, 6 like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her lord. You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.

7 Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers. Suffering for Doing Good

8 Finally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate and humble. 9 Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing. "

Pope Francis spent his last moments praying and cajoling a lost soul. For a Jesus freak, that's real Golgotha hours.

I find it to be bad theology to rely on Paul's ancient letters to specific churches as a blanket condemnation of the times and works of Jesus. They were written in a specific context against Roman sexual removed (temple prostitutes and public orgies to name a few).

There is much the Church writ large must answer for, I agree, but there is ample room for the Lord's love for all His children.

Stay well comrade. You do more than your fair share to keep us informed about Yemeni bravery.

It's been said before, and I'll say it again - Trump is a coward. He talks big, but folds at the first sign of real push back. I have a hard time seeing him lead the US into a hot war anywhere.

Trump is stuck in the 90's, and assumes China needs a market. He doesn't realize that the US needs China way more than China needs the US.

I'm pretty sure that the CPC prefers peaceful reunification, and sees little military value in kicking off a hot war that the US is baiting them into.

I doubt China would make such a rash move. Iirc, Xi has stated that China is happy to wait. The alternative is war, and that's not something China is interested in.
