Anti-Christian rhetoric
The Jesus story has been my preoccupation for most of my life.
There is something about it that grabs and haunts me. Yet I must say that I find it deeply disturbing when this story is co-opted by people to use it for their own personal purposes. The secretary of defense (and people like him) who see Jesus as a warrior and Christians as warriors who are about the business of fighting to bring about some kind of Christian nation is promoting what we would call heresy. Yuck, is all that I have to say. This is dangerous anti-Christian rhetoric.
