What do they mean when they say that a hippie type figure called Jesus loves me and died for my sins? I didn't ask anybody tobe tortured and killed for me. Ok, even if he dies for my sins-good.
Why are they saying these to me? Do I need to say--"Ok, that guy died for my sins--HE's COOL!!" Who the hell are you to judge me as a sinner???

I am not a sinner. I never sinned. I didn't contradict too much as Jesus acted himself.

No real offense meant to you,or those you seem to be judging, but I suspect you aren't a "christian" which by the way is not confined definitively, as so many wanna be's profess.

GOD, apparently has many names and faces, and belief has many levels and definitions. Ones faith system is a "comfort zone" no matter the name tags attached to it. AND we are all "allowed" by natural and subjective LAW to believe in any manner we choose. We are also able,,,hopefully to accept that others don't necessarily follow our belief system, but if they find comfort in their own, you have the right, and ability to ignore that they may feel differently.

In the END,,, or rather,,,before our own end, we might want "someone" GOD or otherwise, to enlighten us that we will know something more grand than a physical life,,, BUT I PROMISE YOU,,,, Not one of the 6 plus billion alive at this moment, truly "KNOW"

Lighten up, follow your own path. Let others preach or believe, and accept it as a fact of life, without so much stressing.

!!WOW!! You are really mad that someone is telling you how much you are loved. Nobody is judging you (don't flatter yourself) Nobody is perfect. Even unbelievers have done "wrong" things before. The only difference is that Jesus wants to forgive you and give you peace and happiness.

Let me ask you something

1. How exactly are Christians "bigots"?
2. Why are you so ANGRY?
3. Does it really have anything to do with Christianity or religion in general?
4. Are speaking of a specific person who acted like a "bigot"?

Have a nice day.

I think your problem is what I see most people's problem to be on this topic:

1)You are uneducated about any religion, especially Christianity. I'm not judging you here, I'm just assuming that's the case by your comments. If you studied it at all, you might be able to answer your own question.

2)You are stereotyping here. You have obviously come across some Christians that are are hypocrites. Not all feel the need to judge others or force their opinions onto others, but it is our right to have an opinion and our faith can direct that opinion.

The first question to ask is why does God require that *anyone* die before he can forgive sin (in Christian theology)? The Jesus story is a distraction that tries to shift your attention away from the immorality of the doctrine of original sin to the presumed nobility of Jesus the Suffering Hero.

Christians seem arrogant because they've become assured that they have THE TRUTH and everybody with different ideas is wrong and needs "correcting." In fact, though, Christians (and Jews and Muslims) are without the truth. All of them are wrong. They are wrong both in the details and in the basics of their metaphysics. They're wrong in their lore, and they're wrong in their epistemology.

But they are so arrogant in their self-assurance that you can't teach them anything better.

I'm not judging you as a sinner - the Bible is.

1 John 1:8  If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

Not liking that won't change the facts.

If your house was on fire one night, would it be wrong for me to wake you up and tell you about the danger, or would you rather I let you continue to rest in comfort?

A true Christian isn't supposed to judge. The Scripture says, "Judge not lest ye be judged. For with what measure ye meet, it shall be measured unto you again." It means(in my humble opinion) that the very same things "Christian" people use as a measuring stick against sin in their witness to others is going to be levied against them by God at their Judgment! I'm truly sorry that you feel as if you've been judged unfairly and hope that you find what you're searching for under God's terms, not man's.

We are all sinners. Each and every one of us. So while we are judging you as a sinner we are also judging ourselves. Anyone who says with confidence that they have never sinned is the biggest fool.

See right now you are acting like a fool and you are talkn' Stupit. First of all what people are telln' you yes some of it is true but you gotta research it for yo self talk to a minister or pastor or somebody you know that knows what they are talking about. Jesus died so that you may live God was gonna kill everythang on the face of the earth but Jesus inter-veined for you so that you may sit up here and acta fool. He loves you no matter who you are and he will forgive you of yo sins just ask him. see right now you are confused and dont kno where to turn but i guarantee you ( Ay Im young to man i know you got questions) But I guarantee that if you ask him to come into yo life i bet you he will do it just talk to him like im talkin to you now.

No one is judging you as a sinner,you inherited it so stop complaining and realizes the Truth you have no shame,if it wasn't for Jesus you wouldn't be here right now.but i guess only smart people believe in the truth,if you chose not to that is up to you.may God have mercy on you when it is your turn to be judge by him.
