I have such a hard time reading questions and replies to questions pertaining to Christianity on here. People think that Christians are evil, hateful and just plain mean. But when they reply to religious questions the non-Christians are the ones that spout hatred and violence. I am a Christian and I am also a sinner, and I am not condemning or judgemental towards non-Christians, but I do try to be educational and guiding when I can. I think if I didn't try to help others then I would be a hypocrite. If I honestly think non-Christians are going to hell and I sit and do nothing, then what kind of a Christian does that make me?
I know that there are people who don't want to hear about Christianity, but then why are they on here trying to convince others that we are so bad.
I do not claim to be perfect, and I do not have answers for everything. I sin every day, so I don't think I live some perfect Christian life. The one thing I have done is become saved.

Im proud but why would God make me gay at birth, then test me daily with having to put up with all the abuse that comes from living in sin.

Hebrews 8:6-7
But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises. For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.

Hebrews 7:3
Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God," was Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.

Just asking in innocence and curiosity, here. Not looking for any debates about why Christianity is better.

Hebrews 2
2:9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.

No kidding!It's nuts! just like everything else happening to me in Kalamazoo, MI, USA.All the crazy crap (trickery,job loss,stalking,credit ruined...)all seems to be connected to discrediting of my person in general!The police actually help the criminals, like after they put sand in my car engine I had to bicycle then they stole my bike on the 4th of july like "they're the Americans" or something! & the cops do nothing in fact I was harrassed by dispatch when I called in info about the thief days later since I saw her again! It's creapy wierd!Does anyone have a clue & I'd love to move but they allow me pennies to live on.I'm concerned, the longer I stay afloat in this situation the worse the tourtre gets!Yet I can't responsibly move& this would be very important to do if I did move.They seem to be afraid of $or me having it,do you have any ideas out of this mess?I have tried most, hopefully not all.I have reason to believe the Am public is being tested here-ONLY HELPFULL AnswersPlease!

I am a new user of Yahoo! Answers. I just posted my first question today, and in a matter of minutes was overwhelmed with answers. Sara, Samantha, Alwin... I want to thank each one of you for your lovely answers.
At the same time, another question arose.
Evil and violence manifests itself in the ways we see around us: war, crime, cheating, etc.
Why do we not see / hear of goodness showing itself? A smile to a stranger, a few kind words, patient listening to the distressed, some timely help to the needy...
What we could do is limited only by our imaginations. One good deed could trigger another, and soon we might be flooded with enthusiasm.
(This is not my wishful thinking and actually might be possible. "One good deed deserves another", is not my line.)

Can't such positive acts counter the prevalent gloomy atmosphere spread by violence and acts of terror?

Looking forward to your thoughts.

As weird as this question may sound, were they fallen angels or not ? Why was Jesus so mad at them calling them hypocrites, generation of vipers, fools even. Did Jesus not say not to call any human a fool ? Were the pharisees then non-human ? Were they the fallen angels from Genesis 6:4 that took wifes and cohabitated with them ? This would explain why Jesus, on one hand promoted the idea to love thy neighbour, but on the other, was extrimely mad at those pharisees.
