That's true, but following Christ entails the whole package. We don't get to pick and choose. He did not compromise with Pharisees. He told them the truth that they needed to hear, and for a while it turned them away, but they kept coming at him and building a case against him and in the end they killed him. But Jesus didn't compromise, even to the end. This one is just another Pharisee, morally camouflaged as a Christian. His Christianity is ego only, and he proved it. I engaged in conversation with him specifically because he says in his bio (could be a she, idk) that he's a Christian. That turned out to be a lure and a deception. How forgiving should I be of this? That depends entirely on him. He made his choice by blocking me. That's the third overtly christian nostrich to block me instead of engaging with the material. If you look at the history of the conversation, you'll see that he made an assertion based on his Christian worldview, which I resonated with and tried conversing about, but he didn't want to deal with anything that might threaten his biases (which, IMO nothing I said did, but you can see that's how he reacted).

Or, didn't have time to read it, and then was accused of hypocrisy.

It's on both sides.

Yes, it's the whole package. I agree.

I love the book Leadership and Self Deception... Coming in with a heart at peace changes how we see everything. It's worth getting there.
