Question

10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.
9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.
8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.
7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women, children, and trees!
6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky

5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.

4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving."
3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity.
2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.

1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christia

*Christian.

Answer 1

christianity is not the only truth in universe. It is not even perfect truth.

There are eastern religions which have more logical core philosophies, and explanations for God and universe

But they are not being allowed by christians to talk abt their faith

Answer 2

haha. I'll answer. but these are my opinions. not the opinions of all Christians.
10- I deny the existence of gods claimed by other religions. But I do not feel outraged whem someone denies the existence of mine because I have to understand that they have formed their own opinions, and touched by different experiences.
9- I do not feel insulted or dehumanized. Evolution is very interesting, and certain scientists find it easier to believe that we evolved from bacteria than believe in God. And where in the Bible does it state that humans were created with dirt..?
8- Having many gods is not the same as having a Triune God. A lot of polytheists believe what they've grown up to believe. That's not very funny.
7- No, I have not watched my face turn purple before.. and God killed those babies because the Pharoah denied the freedom of the Jews. Thus the Pharoah is indirectly responsible for those deaths, in my opinion.
6- I laugh when the media makes Hindu gods into cartoons on tv. Greek myths are interesting. Out of curiousity, are there still people who believe in Greek gods?
5- Long lengths of time are kind of meaningless to me, unless it's eternity. Does it matter so much how old the world is?
4- First part yes. But they die because they do not CHOOSE to accept Christ. Those who have never heard of him, and small childern, do not enter Hell. That's quite tolerant to me.
3- I love science and history. And I have never heard any one speak in tongues before (least I don't think). My faith is enough to make me believe.
2- How could you come up with those statistics? And many, many prayers are made selfishly and without knowing God at all. God can't grant a prayer if you're not listening to Him.
1- A Christian is someone who has repented and wholeheartedly believes in the Triune God. Not someone who has studied the Bible and history extensively.

Answer 3

This "question" (!?!) has been "asked" dozens of times here already. The "question" contains many outright lies and gross distortions about the bible and true Christianity. Here are a few Scriptural thoughts to consider:

(Romans 16:17) Keep your eye on those who cause divisions and occasions for stumbling contrary to the teaching that you have learned, and avoid them.

(2 Corinthians 4:4-6) The god of this system of things has blinded the minds of the unbelievers

(Philippians 2:14-15) In among a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you are shining as illuminators in the world

(1 Timothy 6:3-5) If any man teaches other doctrine and does not assent to healthful words, those of our Lord Jesus Christ, nor to the teaching that accords with godly devotion, he is puffed up with pride, not understanding anything, but being mentally diseased over questionings and debates about words. From these things spring envy, strife, abusive speeches, wicked suspicions, violent disputes about trifles on the part of men corrupted in mind and despoiled of the truth

Answer 4

Basically, all you have written is a compilation of the errors of FALSE religion, with absolutely none of the benefits of TRUE religion.
In that regard, you are exactly like the PEOPLE (not God, or religion) that you condemn for their ungodly & unchristian behavior. For your statement to have any validity or accuracy you would need to 1st; examine the subject from an objective point of view, which in my opinion is not possible for you to do (because you seem to blinded by your hatred), & 2nd; actually do your own research (i.e., not simply repeating some other fool's lame excuses for anti-God propaganda) so you could finally determine for yourself that the things you're whining about are 1st; not God's fault (if you're sick & the doctor gives you a prescription but you don't take it, don't blame him when you don't get well!) &, 2nd; (what? you don't make mistakes or do wrong? ever?) the shortcomings & errors of the people you're crying about are proof that what God says is true, not proof of the opposite.
Have a nice day
Oh, & try to grow up a little, you'll be happier when you do

Answer 5

It comes down to this - either you believe what the Bible says or you don't. If you do not believe - you make God a liar, you make God less than perfect - you make Him Human.

So the end will be like 2 sides of a coin - either God did all the things He said He did and sent His only son to die on the cross so we can live with Him in Heaven - or it is ALL fake and there is no reason for living, there is no hope.

I can tell you this - if God is real - I would hate to face Him one day and try and explain why I should not spend eternity in Hell for telling people God is less than a God.

Answer 6

Before you can know whether or not our beliefs are true. You'll first have to know that there is a truth. And to know that there is a truth you'll have to know what truth is. If you wander around thinking everything is equally true. What do you base that theory on? When 2 or more things contradict they cannot both or all be true. Until you learn that there are absolutes, you will remain lost.

By the way you have no idea what I feel or when I am insulted or when I Iaugh. You know very little of me and even less about Christianity. If you can be civil. we can discuss these things.

Answer 7

Bible thumpers lie, live in complete denial, and rely on ignorance & superstition as the foundation for their beliefs.

Atheists are Christians (Jews, Muslims) with one less God.

Answer 8

You didn't ask anything that requires an answer. You being who? Christians? Sounds like you are trying to prove a point, not ask a question.

Answer 9

These are my new 10 commandments.

Answer 10

No one should bash any religion, for there is only one judge and he will judge us all one day,,, Judge not lest you be judged.
