text: Thomas, you are saying something right given from whom the first three negative comments come. Kudos to you.
  
  I can see how some of Christ's teaching can leave wiggle room for those who don't wish to take their faith really seriously - The poor you will have with you always - for example. It's kinda let the Church off the hook for centuries (about 17 centuries.) 
  
  But you have to do some serious mental contortions to arrive at the conclusion that Jesus endorsed violence, as these posters predictably do.
