So I asked why everyone hates Christians and the replies were mostly along the lines of "We hate when people shove their beliefs down our throats" or "We hate when Christians push things on us". I can understand that, because I hate when people do it to me. But maybe, do you think that just maybe the reason you hate when Christians do that is because you hate being pressured with the truth?

We don't hate gays, muslims, etc...just what they do and believe. Hate the sin not the sinner my friend.

bc_munkee--you must be very self centered to think that my last question was pointed at you and you only.

Is that why Christians hate atheists? Why they hate gays? Why they hate liberals? Why they hate Jews? Why they hate Muslims? Why they hate ....... and the list goes on. Do Christians hate others because they can't face the truth?
If you think Christianity is right, good for you. But it's a sign of desperation to try to justify Christianity by the criticism against it.

No. You're wrong. 100%, totally and completely wrong. And it's sooo obvious that you're just looking for other egocentric, like-minded, fundamentalists to agree with you.
If the truth were so evident, as you seem to believe, then isn't it not also reasonable to assume everyone would agree on the same religion?
I also want to point out to you that there are over 6,000 different Christian denominations, and none of them can actually agree on anything. Christianity - much like the people whom make up this world - is very diverse, and like it or not you might want to consider expanding your point of view just a *tad*.
Also, going back to my answer from your previous question - which you so tactlessly dodged - what happened to love thy neighbor? Hmmm? You can't answer that because you are full of hate. I love how you uber-Christians just pick and choose the parts of the Bible that suits your nasty little, pathetic, lives and then ignore the rest. You know, the important things, like Christ's teachings about love and compassion.
Ok, everyone, say it with me. "Hypocrite!!"

Sand and sun people today want to live in sin, they want to live like GOD doesn't exist and make all kinds of excuses for their sin, they will rip you apart and feed you to the dogs if they thought they could,, just remember this is a glimpse of what is to come for Christians, when the anti Christ does take power we will soon die for what we believe and I'm sure you feel the same way as I do, they can have my head but they will never take my soul that belongs to the one true GOD, And Jesus is my savior and the love of my life and NO one on earth can tell me different.

(1 Peter 4:4) Because you do not continue running with them in this course to the same low sink of debauchery, they are puzzled and go on speaking abusively of you.
(2 Timothy 4:3-5) For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the healthful teaching

I couldn't agree more with your statement about hating the sin not the sinner.
I think the problem arises from the tone used in answering questions.
I am appalled at the anger and choice of words that are used by those claiming Christianity when answering questions.
And while I'm at it using ----- instead of the actual word is really foolish. You obviously thought it but think it isn't right to write it out.
Well I hate to burst your bubble but it isn't right to think it either.

Even though it is hard and difficult for a child to take medicine we make sure the child takes medicine when it is required. Because we love them so, the same way we want to tell them the TRUTH, we want every one to enjoy the love, joy and peace of JESUS. we aren't forceing it down any ones throats. Just like a child, people not knowing the goodness of Christ Jesus are feeling that we are forceing it down our throats. Let us pray for them so that God will touch them.

I don't hate anyone.
Also, why does your truth have to be my truth? Maybe I am Christian and you're an atheist. Maybe you're Christian, and I'm the atheist. So what? Why should I concern myself with your beliefs, and in changing them?
My faith is between me and my God (if I have one).

people don't understand us as Jehovah Witnesses. they say nasty things about us. we have feelings just like anyone else. we laugh and cry. we pay bills and shop in your stores. we are not a cult and I wish people would stop calling us a cult. we are a religion. we are in 235 lands. it people are not interested just say so and we will be happy to leave. you don't have to be nasty or rude or come to the door nude. I guess people would turn Jesus away also. remember at matthew 28 verse 19 and 20.

I guess you did not read my answer last time. I do not hate them, I just believe their ideology is false. And your arrogance in assuming that it is true is astounding. There's your truth.

Truth is an onion, when you peel all of the layers and get to the center you find... nothing.
