I've been wondering that for a long time.
It wouldn't matter....folks would still find a way to belittle us. Live and let live has become the motto of many who consider themselves followers of Christ. If we stand up for what we believe in...we are still called crazy, ridiculous, dreamers, mean spirited, unreasonable, illogical....why would we subject ourselves to more of it when it has to do with something as goofy as making a big fat hairy deal over advertising for a soda? You really can't separate yourself from that when so many folks call themselves Christians.....unless you found another name to call yourself. That thought has occurred to me before.
And anyway...there are so many more important things that matter. If you believe God looks on the heart, then you have to live that way and love folks the best you can. Meet the needs of your community and worship how you are led...getting upset over things that don't matter just takes time away from the important things.
That cracks me up.
