We don't blame the gun.  So if Christians are against Guns, then they would be hypocrites telling others not to own guns if they also road in a motor vehicle.  Sadly, being a hypocrite has not presented any stumbling blocks to many Christians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LadyC Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 to me the whole idea that christians should not be allowed to own firearms is about as absurd as the other thing i hear unbelievers often say... that christians should not vote. really, the secular world wants christians to be third class citizens with no rights whatsoever.

Guest shiloh357 Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 The Left uses crazy people who should never own guns as a reason to persecute law abiding citizens from owning.  You have no reason to fear a gun in the hands of a trained, licensed, law-abiding citizen.  I went to a wedding down south, once.  It seemed to me that everyone (but me) was packing heat at that wedding. Guys and gals both had guns either in their purses, or on their person in sporty looking holsters. I never felt so safe in my life.
