Martin Luther admirally stood firm on his conviction of "the just shall live by faith" 500 years ago. He also claimed the moral high ground. However, within just a few years religious warfare erupted in his homeland, claiming the lives of 10's of thousands of innocents. There was bloodshed on both sides. Though his initial convictions were without a doubt correct, his methods can never be condoned.
I pray that this political divide between us will not spiral into indescriminate "warfare". Planting the flag of holiness or righteousness upon the highest hill is admirable, but is always polarizing. All the men from Tulsa know this to be true. For them to tell others to expect otherwise is ignorant at best (which is hard to believe" and disingenuous at worst.
