I think we have the wrong idea about the word community.
We think it means it's okay to be isolationist, protective, biased, self-policing, conformist, and self-serving.
That's not what Jesus taught in the parable of the good Samaritan, or the one about the sheep and goats.
He taught that being a community is like a friendly neighbor that doesn't care if you conform or not to his standards. Hey, we're neighbors! That's good enough for me.
