If Jesus was on the earth today and said Matthew 5:40 would the internet call him cloak-cuck?

Christianity and utilitarianism are absolutely incompatible. Christianity is not a moral system whose end is to minimize suffering and maximize indulgence in the passions, rather Christianity is life and salvation in Jesus Christ, which often comes through and within suffering.

Utilitarianism and Christianity are completely compatible when you use the word "good" in the Christian context and not the hedonistic, semi-subjective way most people interpret it.

If everything you do is to achieve the greatest good (as in God is good) then, literally, utilitarianism is just Christianity by another name.

Aside from the fact that that meme is just plain wrong – those who steal never appreciate their ill-gotten acquisitions as much as one who worked hard and finally achieved victory in their lives of that thing they saved so hard for …

N - E - V - E - R

… no, utilitarianism and Christian values are not compatible, because utilitarianism is "the (ultimate) end justifies the means" … but for the Christian, the means ((( ARE ))) the end in this life, at least.

If it were not so, we would never have had willing martyrs.

Indeed, our faith would have died out centuries ago.

Angles are from Denmark.

Saxons from Germany.

The founders of civilisation in general, the greatest explorers who have ever lived. The creators of concepts such as human rights, and almost ever form of technology to exist.

They are also the founders of the USA, and of the language you are using. Not to mention the computer in front of you.

I wonder what brand of inferior race you are, to have such a chip on your shoulder. Most often it is those with some part of anglo-saxon blood in them, who are tainted enough by darker strains that they know they will never be accepted, so they turn against that part of themselves out of pathetic frustration.

Maybe you should learn to accept yourself.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

No, you're thinking of transgender people. Angles are from geometry.

Newsflash, asshole, all races are equally terrible and sin laden, and all who call on Jesus are equally saved

>29“In those days people will no longer say,

‘The parents have eaten sour grapes,

and the children’s teeth are set on edge.’

Instead, everyone will die for their own sin; whoever eats sour grapes—their own teeth will be set on edge.

False and deceptively so, leave this place

>21 “Not every one who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you evildoers.’
