THis is what has floored me about what I've learned some folks believe
Christianity is. Do anything you want with abandon and it's okay because
one has Jesus. Long way from the belief that one claims to love God, they
do as he asks. Along same lines as I love my husband and therefore I don't
run around to bars picking up men for one night (or any night) stands. If
I did, I'd be broiled alive here - though it is no different from saying
you love God then living your life in opposition to his teachings.

"Do anything you want with abandon." Hmmmm...don't think I've said that.
Certainly there are consequences for behaving outside the lines of what one
believes Christianity teaches. But, and I won't beat this dead horse any
longer, I'm not the one to impose those consequences on another person.
