Christianity is hard.

To him to strike you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either. Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him to take away your goods do not ask them back. Luke: 29-30

If one reads this passage in today’s society without knowing the context of what Jesus was trying to say (click the link) this is incredibly naive. And Jesus wasn’t naive.  

Anyone who has ever attended Sunday school also knows the parable of the Good Samaritan.

I can relate to what this guy was trying to do, but the parable doesn’t mention the injured man rising and beating the crap out of the Samaritan and robbing him. This is the reality today. This is what they voted for.
