The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Why do people act like this? They think Jesus saying love thy neighbor means that you must contradict the teachings of the Bible and embrace homosexuality and drug addicts.

I could be wrong on this, but they could mean “not hate your neighbor” rather than “agree what they’re doing is okay”

And? Yes, we should love everyone, every human being and this in itself includes rebuking them when they go astray. This is true love. Tolerance is actually a subtle hatred, meaning that you don't care that people damn themselves.

It's not implied by the sign that you must love addiction, heresy and sexual crimes, it's just that we live in such a depraved spiritual environment that nobody's intended to think of the concept of loving the sinner while hating the sin. This is typical of that fatal Rotarian-Christianity so popular in America, a close relative of prosperity gospel that suits the retarded and overwrought optimism known as the American dream. Gosh, it will be interesting when they finally wake up, but I don't expect anything more from a country founded by revolutionary deists.

>Why do people act like this?

The devil can cite scripture for his purpose

An evil soul producing holy witness

Is like a villain with a smiling cheek;

A goodly apple, rotten at the heart

O what a goodly outside falsehood hath!

In short, because pandering is easy

It's a shame that verse is always misused by liberal Christians/atheists/Jews/etc. to water down Christianity. Yes, I'll embrace the neighbor as a brother or sister, but I will never embrace or even tolerate the neighbor's sins. That includes:

<thy slothfulness

<thy homosexuality

<thy terrorism

<thy thuggery

<thy criminal trespass

<thy usury, subversion, persecution, and other uncharitable behavior

<thy idolatry

<thy heresy

<thy blasphemy

Now, not all Muslims are terrorists, not all black people are thugs, etc., however the people who spout "Love thy x neighbor" the loudest are the ones who want to see Muslim terrorist attacks swept under the rug, or thugs like Michael Brown attack white people without them fighting back, or homosexuality (an abomination to the Lord) become normalized, or illegal immigrants trespass into our countries and be fed, clothed, housed, and paid without them working. I cannot "love" that behavior in good conscience.

>Jesus didn't make exceptions

Apparently Pastor Jim (or whoever put up that stupid sign) forgot the parts where Jesus tore up a synagogue, said homosexuals, addicts, and other idolaters will not inherit the kingdom of God, and told his disciples that many who call upon the name of the Lord will be rejected ("I never knew you - depart from me").

Nah, they're saying love

This is what happens when social services are lacking, and then foreign charities have to come in and do your work for you.
