I know where you're comin from. I love and believe in God yet I hate the institutionalized, commercialized version of Christianity perpetuated throughout the world. Today, Christianity exploits God.

Christianity is the most misused word in the English language. Some who call themselves Christians are less christian than the worst pagans I know. They use and abuse the laws of the Bible to get their own way, just like the Pharisees of Jesus day and he called them off-spring of vipers. He really gives them a blasting in Matthew 23.

Do you consider yourself to be a good person? Most people do. However, most of us differ as to the definition of "good." Let's see if you are! Have you ever lied (even once--fibs, white lies, etc.)? Ever stolen (anything--the value is irrelevant)? Jesus said, "Whoever looks upon a woman to lust after her, has committed adultery already with her in his heart." Have you ever looked with lust? If you have said "Yes" to these three questions, by your own admission, you are a lying, thieving, adulterer at heart; and we've only looked at three of the Ten Commandments. That's how God sees you. Nothing is hid from His holy eyes. The Bible says that God will punish all murderers, rapists, thieves, liars, adulterers, etc. He will even judge our words and thoughts. On Judgment Day, will you be found to be guilty or innocent of breaking His commandments? God's Law demands justice, and the penalty for sinning against Him is death and Hell. . There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death. Where are your beliefs leading you too? You know where! For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Repent!

(Look, my hand is going up). I'm a God worshiper (the judeo-christian God, mind you), a Bible-believer and some who intentionally cultivates a devotional life. Thus, I'm convinced that Christianity is a western understanding of the Biblical narrative, but since I'm not from the West, most of its basic tenets remain foreign to me. I don't consider myself a Christian but one who wants to follow Jesus Christ.

Not all Christians are that bad! But the ones you are probably thinking of, yeah, I would have to say yes.

i beleive that christianity is good for most people. i just don't understand how one idea can be so blind to other possibilities. there is just too much information out there to not think with an open mind. I assum that those who don't think are choosing to just be ignorant

Christendom is the reason why many hate True Christians today.
