Christians should not be dualists. We should see people as people and embrace them. There is no reason to square off with someone because they have different ideas than we do. In fact the only people we learn from are those whose ideas stretch us.
We should work to take folks in rather than separate them.
And when it comes to faith, we are not dualists. We do not believe that God is in a fight for his life with an equal and opposite force [the devil.] Can we please stop talking like the devil is the opposite of God! He is a created being, a fallen angel. He is not all knowing or all present. Only God is.
This is our Father's world. He puts his arms around everyone, even Miami Hurricane fans.
It's a beautiful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
