Christian values are not values as practised by the Catholic Church or the various sects which have emerged over the centuries - where theology, power and doctrine rule in place of values.
Christian values derive from the teachings of Jesus Christ - a man or God (depending on one’s point of view) who preached :
love,
peace,
tolerance,
kindness,
forgiveness and
goodwill
towards our fellow human beings.
He did not live a luxurious life, walked around in basic clothings (no tall hats and clothings of silk & gold threads) while preaching spiritual well-being over material well-being to the multitude.
So what’s wrong with the above as so many on the left in NZ today would have us believe?
