Matthew 23:37-39
There is nothing quite like the defense of a dogma. No one is immune to it, at some level at least. It often descends into chaos as sides fire their guns at each other. Jesus was bringing a new idea, or rather He was clarifying the old ideas, yet, Jerusalem always killed her prophets, and He was no different.
Why can't we just listen and agree to disagree? Except where they attach me personally, I have no problem with people who hold other ideas. I don't agree, I don't have to. But I feel solid enough in what I know and believe not to feel threatened by someone else's opinions. Too much time is spent not listening to each other, or worse.
