>Westboro Baptist is on firmer biblical ground with their hate and bigotry than liberal Christians are with their love and acceptance. So when you say you use the Bible as a moral guideline, it’s absolutely fair to point out that WBC does too. When you say you use the Bible as your morals, then you admit that WBC acts more in accordance to scripture than you do, what exactly does that say about biblical morality? You are a good person IN SPITE of the bible, not because of it. “Your neighbour” doesn’t mean “every other person on the planet”. In the OT that term is used, specifically, to refer to the various tribes of Israel, and there is an entirely different set of rules for treating with sojourners. Christians take it, generally, to mean other Christians, usually of the same denomination. It specifically excludes people of other religions (except perhaps Jews), non-believers, homosexuals, sinners, etc. The WBC uses a very biblical definition of “thy neighbour”. I applaud liberal Christians for applying “love thy neighbour” to everyone, but there is no scriptural support for that position, and a whole lot against it. There are no honest bible scholars even attempting to argue for that definition of “thy neighbour”. Again, it’s another example of Christians being good in spite of the biblical position.
