Like, take this one guy for example. He's a christian and he always gotta start drama cause i'm an atheist by quoting the bible to me and calling me a fool and being conceited that i'm not a christian like him. He didnt know i'm a stripper and so one night i saw him walk into our strip club and feeling up on all the girls, and i was like why is he here he's married? but whatever, i get more money. Why do christians gotta think there so perfect and everything and criticiz e other people and then they cheat on there spouse and do whatever there bible says not too? They all seem to be shady people. At least i dont say i'm not something i'm not and i dont try to be. There so fake.

Please remember that going to Church and reading the Bible, are to be done for the LORD, and not to impress people.
If this person (the example given) were a true Christian, he would not have bothered you after you rejected the word of GOD. It says in the Bible, not to call anyone a fool. Meaning that we should not demean people of other faiths and with different lifestyles. A true Christian knows that only kindness, patience and love will win a person to Christ. That their life must be an example of these traits.
JESUS loves everyone, he only hates sin, and does not think of us as fools. HE stated that HE did not come into the world to condemn us but to save us.
You sound like a very sensitive person, and I'm sorry that you've been hurt by a person that is not living a Christian life. However, please don't give up on JESUS. Below are some scriptures for you.
Proverbs Chapter 17 Verse 19-20
He who loves a quarrel loves sin; he who builds a high gate invites destruction.
A man of perverse heart does not prosper; he whose tongue is deceitful falls into trouble.
Proverbs Chapter 18 Verse 1
An unfriendly man pursues selfish ends; he defies all sound judgement.
May GOD Bless you, and give you courage.

why are you reading people instead of reading the Bible, for spiritual guidance? I hear people say all the time, "I would never go to church because so and so goes there and I am a much better person than they are!" well, that might be true, but your belief in that person doesn't get you into heaven. look to God for answers.
Christians are far from being perfect, they have the same weaknesses that anyone else does. but the Bible says to put to death the things that drives us (toward sin) and turn to Jesus for our support, and for the most part most Christians do that.
this is a good lesson to all Christians.. we are the only Bible that most people will ever read.
I am truly sorry that you had to see that from one who claims to be a servant of God.
by the way, not all Christains are hypocrits, but does that mean that all are atheist's strippers?

I find most christians are hypocrites too. I am a christian and I don't think i am a hypocrite. I totally respect your opinion as long as you respect mine. I do not think i am perfect, but I hate the rich christians at my church who look down on me. Since I am a teen, they think that I don't know what I am talking about, or I shouldn't have an opinion. I may be a teen but I am not 3 years old.
and that man is very hypocritical. Next time he starts quoting the bible, you should say "Yeah, who made you the Pope? and I am pretty sure the Pope doesn't go out to a strip club and fondle the women"
ugh i hate em' too, but please don't form a sterotype that is already in the progress of ALL Christian being mean and hypocrites, ect. Next thing you know we may be getting burned at the stake or something. lol

Well, when you get the chance and you will- ask JESUS,
Who is The Christ and surely not a hypocrite.
All Atheist's are not fools and conceited and thus your statement that all Christians are hypocrites is utterly false within itself.
No true believer in Jesus (saved) is a hypocrite but rather holy and righteous. Christian does not mean saved in Christ. 80%
of America calls itself Christian Religion. Religion does not save
anyone. Never has-never will. Hypocrite is a self righteous person nothing more than a pretender of salvation-they profess it but don't possess it. Christ contended with the Pharisee's-nothing but religious hypocrites-finding fault in everyone but themselves. Yet they were the biggest sinners! But there are Diamonds among the coal. Good and evil does exist. Like it or not. Some of us are true believers/followers. But we have to live the example Christ set not the example the guy you speak of.

No, not all Christians are fake. But you will meet very few *real* Christians. One or two, in a lifetime, if you are lucky. And I bet you that they would like your show.
This guy of yours is weak. He is trying to convince you to stop being a stripper because he feels that he cannot convince himself that he should either stop coming to your club or start enjoying it without giving bullshit to the girls. He is caught in a dilemma, and quoting the Bible seems the easy way out. Can you really blame him? The poor soul probably doesn't know any better!
Take care, The Satellite Dish, and keep up the good work. :)

It's a broad statement to say that ALL Christians are hypocrites -- but I will agree that most are. The reason is because it is always easier to be a critic than it is to be an example. The bible says that "You will know them by their fruits" meaning that you should look at the quality of their life and make a choice whether or not it is what you want for yours... if not -- let it go. If they do have the life you desire -- then follow their lead. The bible also says that "ALL have fallen short of the glory of God." So that says to me that we all will have areas of life where we screw up. NOBODY is perfect!!!

EVERY Christian is not a hypocrite---but the rest of us pay the price for people like this guy you know who is a hypocrite and is a disgrace to other Christians.. He is totally wrong in his actions in calling you a fool, in his actions in the club, and make no mistake, God sees and is taking notes, and will deal with him.
You will know you find a real Christian because though we are not perfect, we try to live a moral life and love & help our fellow human beings. Don't let this guy turn you off, OK?

OK look. I am a christian that has lost his faith, but my parents are very devote to their faith, they are very good people, they read the bible daily, my mother teaches religion classes. Just because one guy you know is giving you crap. Ignore him if you dont like it. You want to be atheist go for it, but dont come on here and start calling all Christians hypocrites that's really rude and you know if you are more open to ideas then you may get something out of life. You saying that they are all hypocrites is one hell of a hyperbole, if you are so smart then I would watch what I say before you make alot of people mad at you for generalizing.

MLK wasn't a hypocrite. He was a good man. It's the people, not the religion. The only problem is that the modern person that claims to be a christian doesn't act ANYTHING like what Martin Luther King was. He's one of few that could earn my respect. It's sad I said that, but I just don't give a lot of respect after 95% of the christians I've met disrespect me for my beliefs.

Not all Christians are hypocrites, yet the vast majority tend to PRETEND to be christian-like because it affords them the opportunity to receive forgiveness each and every Sunday (cleansing of their sins.) I don't feel one has to be a Bible Carrying, Church Going person to be a Christian, faith is in ones heart and soul. Walk the path YOU choose, live your life to the fullest, be open minded, be able to listen and nonjudgmental and the reward will be sweeter in the end. Those that judge, ridicule or even consider themselves better then others will pay the price in the end. NEVER allow yourself to judge them for their faults - if you do you will become what you disliked about them to begin with.
