After much e-conversation we have finally arrived at what we'll be talking about over the next 10 weeks or so at TRL/MNL...
"People We Love to hate: groups who've been abused, hurt, rejected and despised!"
Over the centuries there have been lots of groups who have been considered "the enemy". They've been abused, rejected, despised and hurt. Whether you're thinking about Jews during WWII, African Americans in the middle of the Twentieth Century, or Christians during the time of Nero there have always been groups who take the brunt of a culture's hatred. What makes people ? What causes certain group to be on the receiving end of the hatred? What does God have to say about all of this? The unfortunate reality is that very often the hating is done under the umbrella of religion. Does God condone hatred? What does He have to say about , about groups of people who are d, or about the ones doing the hating?
Sound intriguing? I thought so too! So show up starting Tuesday January 3rd (Or Monday January 9th) and we'll see where we end up.
The groups we're planning on tackling are:
~Other Races
~Other Religions
~Siblings
~Parents
~People in Authority (over us)
~Homosexuals
~Disabled
~Anyone Different (from us) AKA: 'Dorks, Geeks, & Nerds...Oh my!'
If you think we're missing a people group feel free to blog it here!
