A statement towards you in that manner is of the utmost ignorance. These people are silly. Those types of suggestions will bring them much grief in their lifetime. The saying "Reap what you sew" applies to all. This is a universal truth. This is how they produce a feeling of superiority in themselves at your expense, because they don't have enough self confidence or wisdom to produce it on their own. You are a wonderful facet of life, as each and everyone of us are. Some shine brighter throughout the universe than others. Know that you are loved, no matter what your belief system may include. Live it, love it, you ARE it~Life. Have wonderful adventures in this lifetime, and know that you deserve it.

Just a wild guess here, but something to do with your avatar? Which one would not normally associate with the religious and spirituality category, but her comment was none the less tasteless and is exactly why those of us who practice true Christianity and not religious uppity have a very difficult time trying to get the real message of Jesus Christ out. You have been judged and wrongly so - but then so many of us are each and every day. We are held only accountable to Jesus Christ for our rejecting him, our words, our actions, and our deeds. I hope this gives you some peace of mind and reminds you that just because one calls a blue jay a pesty no-good bird, doesn't mean the next bird watcher will.

That's sad and she was being very judgmental and I'm sorry, but not all that call theme selves Christians are and those that are that act that way are just human like everyone else. If it's any consolation, I don't think that your filth! That's harsh and I've been called worse and wouldn't wish that on anyone. God bless and if you'd like to email me your previous question for a serious answer I will be happy to respond. :)

As a Christian Pastor it always bothers me when someone that profess to be a Christian starts demeaning and insulting someone that has no particular religion. It also appalls me at some of the vulgar things that are said about other religions by those professing Christ.
What can I say, human nature I guess.

I am a Christian not "Religious ", which means Ceremonious. And I do not think of people as filth but lost and hopefully searching for the Truth.

It's people like that that give Christianity a bad name. And people wonder why I'm not a Christian anymore. I was brought up a Christian, then decided I didn't want to have anything to do with religion anymore.

'Deed' was pretty abrasive, I have to admitt.
It's not that 'if you're not religious you're filth' (at least not in my opinion...)
It's more like if you spend your time insulting others who are - than yeah, you would deserve the description. (that's not implied to you...'cause to be honest, I haven't taken any notice of your questions/answers previously)
But some people (including religious ones) are so rude.

I doubt that person was a Christian or religious either
one. Christians want to help one who isn't religious see
"the Light" and become a Christian, and you can't do
that by name-calling or bad-mouthing. Ignore anyone
with answers like that. God Bless.

I don't think you are.did you say something bad about God or Jesus.because i can understand if someone feels that way.it is your choice to server God or not.but if you don't want people to comment back like that,then i think you should give respect to others beliefs,and above all give respect to God and Jesus Christ.because i think that is bull crap to disrespect them. they have nothing to do with wicked people actions.
