I believe it to be a great mistake to present Christianity as
something charming and popular with no offense.... We cannot blink at the fact
that gentle Jesus meek and mild was so stiff in his opinions and so
inflammatory in his language that he was thrown out of church, stoned, hunted
from place to place, and finally gibbeted as a firebrand and a public danger.
Whatever his peace was, it was not the peace of an amiable indifference.

Is there some reason for you to put this crap in your blog?
Anon 9:00, it would help if I understood what about this post is offensive to you. Please explain so that I may answer. Thanks.
Profound quote. I, too, wonder what people find disturbing about it, as opposed to eye opening.
