More pastors have more people locked up by feeding them a steady diet of do's and don'ts blended with just enough of the gospel and religious speak, and willy -
nilly bible passages that are turned into principles (laws), that the poison goes down smoothly and they keep comin» back for more.
One that is just, and merciful, and concerned with how we treat each other and our world (because yes, the Tanach has instructions on how we are to treat even our animals)... or one that just makes willy -
nilly laws, fails to spell out what he wants in a single, comprehensive
passage (since there are conflicting
passages all through the
bible), and then gets his rocks off on sending people to «hell» to suffer eternally when they don't figure it out right.
