As a Christian Anarchist, this is one of my favorite facts.

My dear brother in Christ, not only did our Lord whip the money changers, He took the time to construct the whip and contemplate just how badly He was gonna fuck up those bastards.

I wish churches would teach that to kids braiding lanyards in Vacation Bible School.

And big ups to anyone who goes hard for Tolstoy!

How freaking awesome would that be, man? I grew up on VBS and Kawanis, Wednesday night dinners and Sunday school at Baptist churches in the south. I loved those times, but would never dream of putting my kids (If I'm ever so fortunate) in those same groups because of the awful politics. It would be amazing if there were something like that that taught radical Christianity. We'd live in a different country.
