And I hate seeing people I know end up on the losing end of the stick when they simply brought up an honest question to someone they admired – only to get slammed for it.
Looking over a number of those posts recently, I just wonder what the rest of the world thinks. When our answers to each other (and to non-believers) are so condescending – even hostile – I can’t help but wonder if outsiders look at us and see no difference between us and the world.
I’m not making a point here, I’m just thinking out loud. And in that process, thinking that I could do a much better job of responding to questions and even criticism with a little more grace.
Should Christians be snarky on social media? After all, there’s a difference between answers that make people think, and answers that humiliate.
And I’ve never met anyone who accepted Christ because he or she was embarrassed into the decision.
