Didaché - Is Coca-Cola Really Discriminating Against Christians?

A viral clip claimed Coca-Cola's personalized can generator would let you print "Allah loves you," "Buddha loves you," even "Satan loves you" — but not the name of Jesus. Justin Peters decided to sit down at his own computer and test it, and what he found does not match the outrage.Yes, "praise God," "God is great" and "Christianity" were rejected. But so were "Buddha," "Islam" and "Pepsi is better" — while "Pepsi is best," "Ku Klux Klan," "abortion is murder," "a fetus is a child," "praise Jesus," "Christ is God" and "Christ saves" all sailed through. Peters walks through the screenshots and concludes this looks like sloppy programming, not a corporate war on Christians. He also notes the source of the original clip: Cap Chatfield, "online pastor" at a charismatic church in Omaha that lets women preach to mixed congregations on the Lord's Day.Then he turns theological. Believers should expect persecution — Matthew 5 and 2 Timothy 3:12 leave no exception clauses for Americans — but hunting for persecution where there is none is playing the victim card, borrowed straight from the social justice playbook. He sets a Coke can beside Paul's list in 2 Corinthians 11, Stephen's stoning in Acts 7, and Hugh Latimer and Nicholas Ridley burning at the stake.If every slight is called persecution, the word loses its meaning and Christians will be unprepared when the real thing arrives. Lost companies are not the enemy; they are the mission field.➡️ Click here to find all of Justin’s essential links.
