Jesus was seen as weak. Aggression does not equal strength. Be careful what people, ideas, and words you give power to.

You're never going to "out-hate" someone, it's an impossible task. If you want to change hearts and minds you need to be capable of seeing from their perspective and meeting them where they are.

I've been on both sides of this issue, and I can guarentee you that 95% of the people involved are not, in their hearts, evil or just stupid bigots.

But most of all, it's a beautiful day! I hope the rest of it goes well for you too.
