I posted a similar question before and WOW the hatred and criticism reminding me the Word of God says the world will hate you because of Him. I still say my God is the true God he made heaven and earth even you and me. He send his son Jesus Christ to die for you and me now you have a chance to make your choice when you die you don't go straight to hell but the only way to the Father in Heaven is thru Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. I do not fear when people can kill my flesh but I fear the one that can take away my life AND soul, we could all be dead soon but don't wait too long for Jesus is your only way to the Father in Heaven and don't let the wicked doubt your mind but find your own way to be save before you die. Death is an unexpected thing in life but bless are those that die honoring the name of God and doing his will. You can critize me and hate for as long as you want because Jesus went thru worse just for you and me so who am I to cry over you hating me.

Nothing fails like prayer. And comments like this just help to spread Christian hate. I'm an atheist, and I feel no hate for your mythical god or your dead prophet. There's no reason to hate something that doesn't exist.
However, I am disgusted by this thinly veiled attempt by you to spread Christian hate by claiming that others hate your precious superstition.

Since you feel this driving ambition to pray, you really ought to do YOURSELF a favor, and pray for some brains. It absolutely amazes me that so many people today seem to have been infected with some sort of insidious mental virus that leads them to the insane certainty that the myths, superstitions, fairy tales and fantastical delusions of a bunch of ignorant Bronze Age fishermen and wandering goat herders represent some kind of cosmic 'TRUTH' about fundamental aspects of existence and reality. They embrace a universe in which all that exists are a 6,000 year-old earth and heaven, a solid 'firmament' structure (the sky) separating the earth from heaven (terrarium earth), talking snakes (with legs) and donkeys, a shepherd staff that turns into an asp, demons chased out of people and into pigs, friendly spirits, evil spirits, walking on water, multiplying loaves and fishes, food falling from the sky, conception by a ghost, people raised from the dead, the sun stopping in its tracks, parting seas, people being bodily sucked up into heaven (which, by the way, lies on the 'other side' of the sky), world-wide flood that drowned the earth to a depth of 40 feet above the tallest mountain, creating people from a dust bunny and a rib, a magical tree of knowledge, god speaking from a burning bush... and ritual cannibalism, by eating god in the form of a cracker.
In a sane world, anybody running around spouting ANY of that crap, would be locked up in the State Farm for the Funny. Apparently, though, mass insanity seems to convey some sort of free pass for the loony.
And you dare to suggest that people who DON'T believe all of that ludicrous crap are mentally defective?
Get a grip.

Hi. I'm pagan. I believe in a Goddess.
I don't hate you. I don't hate Christians or Christianity.
What I do hate is being bombarded with proselytisation everywhere I go on Yahoo! Answers (and in real life, as well) with insults and condemnations from some Christians who feel it is their duty to tell me that I'm going to go to their hell because of who I am.
How would you like to be told that you'll suffer in eternal torment just because of your religion, however peaceful and loving it is? How would you feel if someone cornered you in the supermarket while your milk and eggs were getting warm, preaching hellfire and brimstone to you for fifteen minutes, and you being too polite to tell them to fekk off?
No one is going to kill, or even so much as hurt you, for believing in your God. Don't play the martyr. You need to realise what you do to people in the name of 'saving' them. Be happy in yourself. Rest assured that you'll go to your Heaven and be patted on the head by your God. But please stop inflicting hateful preaching on those of us who choose a religion other than Christianity. Christianity is not the only religion. Proselytising to others is not going to get you some extra prize when you get to Heaven. It's just going to push people farther away from your religion.
If you want to lure people into your religion, try behaving like a good person. Be kind, be gracious, be loving. Show it all you can. Have you heard the old phrase 'actions speak louder than words'? It's true. If someone sees you going out of your way to be kind to everyone who crosses your path, they're more likely to wonder why you're such a wonderful person than if they see you in someone's face preaching at them.

I don't hate you.
I do, however, think you should get God to teach you what a run on sentence is. If you're going to proclaim and advertise your religion in the name of God, please do a favor to all Christians and at least make it look legible.
Sorry everyone hates you, by the way. That sucks.

Be a true Christian and serve the poor.Remember what Jesus said 'WHATSOEVER U DO TO THE LEAST OF MY PPL, THAT U DO UNTO ME'. Preaching like this on yahoo or else will not spread Christianity. You can & must pray for others , even those who hate you.

Mei, God will bless you for trying to share your love and faith. Don't give up. Keep praying for those that hate you. If evil people could kill Jesus, surely you will know that bad people have always existed. Pray for those that hate you, one day they will know. Keep on praying.

wow. Your faith looks like it is practically unshakeable. Lucky you. I do pray for all the people who don't know him, but not for all people who hate him. You're right, Jesus went through worse, but that doesn't mean you have to continue suffering yourself, if you even are. Which I doubt. I think its silly to proclaim your faith so openly, it opens you up to this sort of hatred. People feel you are pressing your faith on them... which is the best way to stop them being christian. Pain sent by God makes you stronger, but you're just inflicting it on yourself. Stop preaching!

i admire your faith and your boldness to proclaim your beliefs, but you know what, i am also a christian and i believe in all those things you wrote but there's a proper way to say your beliefs without turning people off or hating you.
best we do is to pray for those who don't understand us, as our saviour said, "forgive them, because they know not what they do". there's a way of GENTLY proclaiming our faith and our beliefs without seeming abrasive or offensive. oftentimes the gentle method wins disbelievers and say that we christians are not half as bad as they think we are.
