“And as a professional theologian who deals with it on a daily basis, looking at what is happening in America, looking at what is happening in Latvia, I have an idea about many of these politicians that – the more you invoke Christianity, the bigger problems I expect in reality," observed by the pastor.
Paich pointed out that any Christian understands that, for example, the tasks of Jesus to love your enemies and forgive those who wrong you, and to be just, are difficult to fulfill. Therefore, a true Christian is well aware of how far he is from these ideals of Christ, and cannot set himself as an example to others.
"Yes, I’m a Christian, I don’t hide it, but I don’t put it in front of everyone either.»

Ļoti trāpīgi.
Jēzus: Imigrants, kurš mīl visus, pat ja tie atšķirās no viņa
Mūsdienu “kristieši”: Ienīst imigrantus un visus, kuri atšķirās no viņiem
Kaut kur pa ceļam pazuda doma šo 2000 gadu laikā.
Kaut kā grūti pilnībā nopietni uztvert kādu, kurš tic debesu tētiņiem un citiem iedomu tēliem.
Good observation. What’s happening in Latvia that has people bringing Religion into the politics?
Labāk, lai piesauc kristietību nekā islamu. Citādi būsim tādos pašos sūdos kā Zviedri un UK.
Agrāk pat bija joks, ka japiesaka karš Zviedriem un japadodas. Tik laba tolaik likās Zviedrija un līmenis. A tagad tik slikti, ka pat ziņās nekut nerāda.
