those are just a few choices.

Because immature people like to call anyone that is different from them names, it makes them feel superior and assuages their feelings of inadequacy,

It depends on the person, really. Not all Christians automatically assume you're Satanist, Muslim, or Atheist if you are not Christian. But, they are some Christians that will automatically assume this. They are Christians out there who care about others and try to coax them to join them. And if they try and do not succeed, they just let other join them in their own good time.
Like me, for example. I'm Atheist. I don't believe in God. But, I'm only 16 and care about school and cars and boys, heh. My mother, my boyfriend, and my friends have tried to change my beliefs for the better of me. But I don't want to change, not yet. Because I'm not ready to believe in God.
Some Christians don't understand this, some do. All I have to say is you shouldn't also automatically assume all Christians are like that. But, some Christians shouldn't automatically assume either.

Not all Christians do this, though many of them do.
It's just one example of the black and white thinking that a lot of Christians engage in.
Another common misconception is that it's not possible to be both gay and Christian. Christians have been taught that being gay is evil, so no gay person can be a Christian.
A lot of simpleminded and scared people need to have defined for them exactly what is good and what is evil. Those people often turn to Christianity (or some other religion) where someone else tells them what to think and do in order to be "good." Therefore, there can be only two possible positions to take. More than that would cause uncertainty, confusion, and anxiety in many Christians who aren't willing or capable of thinking for themselves.
All that being said, I have found that many Christians are very intelligent and thoughtful, and very capable of dealing with shades of gray, and making their own decisions. They are some of the best people I have ever known.

HAHA. I love the amending of the question. Why do you assume that all Christians do this? I would assume if you aren't Christian you must be something else. That seems logical enough. But you stereotype Christians. Why do you assume if one's a Christian that they will automatically do this?

Why are you automatically assuming that all christians are like that? You are doing the very thing that you dislike about christians. There are Christians of many types, and unfortunately, it sounds like you have met some crappy ones that are accusatory and judgemental, but not all people who call themselves christian are this way.

the position did you get your pretend concepts from? The Holy Quran would not say something about no longer being acquaintances with Chirstians of Jews. I as a Muslim do no longer have any problems with someone following a diverse faith. no longer in person-friendly words me yet an exceedingly good majority of Muslims are like that. Now. we do not have any proper to communicate about the Extremists of each and every faith. they have their own complications :) LOL. it could be large and extremely helpful if human beings weren't so ignorant :)

Hmm, I don't believe they do! I know there are plenty of people out there who would consider themselves believers of a Higher Being. They aren't Christians, but they aren't atheists, satanists, or muslims either.

What makes you think that this is what Christians automatically assume?
You are, in fact, automatically assuming things about Christians that aren't true.
