Isn't it amazing that ALL the Christians that will get on this site will always say the things they do to Agnostics and Atheists (and in my case a Realist) and swear that I am condemned to Hell for my beliefs or that I need to take my meds (my favorite since MEDS are a dirivitive of SCIENTIFIC STUDY)-and castigate not only me but anyone that does not see the world from Their christian manifest The Bible-and no matter how hard one tries to show compassion for their stupidity and the fact that they were brain-washed into believing in A Son of A God that was the Holy Spirit of The Father-(Which in and of itself describes a thrice split personality disorder) and also for the fact that jesus spoke as though he were God and then also states that he will be sitting at his Fathers (HIS?) right hand side-makes one wonder what ambition these people have for themselves-as everything is placed in The hands of a MAN that would also be classified as a Mammal-that had cells and DNA & a BELLY BUTTON!

I do see how they have become a gang forcing their will upon those of us FREE-Thinkers-in The US and World-which leads me to my next question-Is Christianinty stronger than The American SPIRIT?

Is it your lack of education on grammar that is your weakness?

I don't think the majority of Christians do any of these things. I think among fundamentalists there is an authoritarian, militaristic and triumphalistic tendency that borders on fascism, is deeply rooted in immaturity, makes a virtue of ignornace and intellectual sloth, is 180 degrees from Jesus and anything but spiritual in the NT church sense. They'd be pushing people around whatever religion they were raised in.
Here in many of the community services charities, pretty much everyone volunteering is Christian, and pretty much none of them are fundamentalists who, for all their heartburn over evolution, tend toward social darwinism, i.e. they think if someone is poor or hungry they deserve to be because of some sin.
But the Catholics, Lutherans, Covenant Church, Presbyterians, they've all pretty much read the Beattitudes and some are doing something about it. You don't run into them as much because unlike the pietists, they think they're here to minister to the lost, not insult them.

If you say you are better then anyone, already your ego has you in trouble. People fear what they don't know and most people want gaurantees and there is none. They would rather be told what to do, then think for themselves. I am not a christian, but I also know there is more to life then the body. It doesn't sound like you are very knowledgable about christian theology anyway. Before you become a critic know your subject so you can make intelligent remarks. Be your own person, but don't judge others for what you percieve to be their faults. Good Luck

You give yourself credit for things that God gave you the ability to do.. but you do not give any to God...
Hmmm... and yes... you too shall one day bend your knee and proclaim Jesus as Lord...
Perhaps right before you go to Hell...
God also gave other people the ability to develop medications to help people that are ill...
God also guides people to develop new inventions to help others and to feed the world...
God helped some people develop computers and the Internet.. and some of them even give Him credit...
Some things that I would consider weaknesses.. you do not, and visa versa...
I know that I am not perfect but I strive to do that which is right in the eyes of the Lord, I don't think that this makes me stupid...
And, I believe that God, His ONLY Begotten Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are three separate beings.. the first two have Physical bodies but the latter does not...
I also believe that Jesus is the First born of God in Spirit and so Jesus' place is at the right hand of God.

Longest run-on sentence I've ever seen, but I know what you mean. Of course, by posting your position here you are going to get these people attracted to answering these questions like flies to honey. Be prepared for more of the same "you're going to hell" and "Jesus loves you", etc., comments that will just frustrate you more. Its going to be interesting to see what gets posted to your question!
To "Level 4" Nikki: Einstein didn't believe in God. He was an atheist, so you are incorrect.

first of all, people Really think you are on meds, a prime example, this question. lol @ meds are a dirivitive of scientific study. u dont think there are any Christian scientists? if i'm not mistaken albert einstein believed in God didnt he? the rest of this jibberish, you have trailed off into a rant due to the meds, i wish i could help!
ok i googled it, einstein doesnt believe in a Personal God,"I believe in Spinoza's God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, not in a God who concerns himself with fates and actions of human beings."http://www.godandscience.org/apologetics/einstein.html just thought i would clarify myself

I doubt anyone is as mean spirited as you paint them. As far as I'm concerned, you can use your God given free will in any way that pleases you. If you want to reject the truth, you surely can.
But can you go back to the beginning when there was nothing and tell me where something came from?

I AM CHRISTIAN and as for attacking people for what they believe,you nonbelievers have us beat on that one,you don't believe,but yet you want let us alone ,you come on the RELIGIOUS/SPIRITUALITY area ,and your only intention is to harass us,because other wise you have no reason to be on here,they haven't yet band Christianity,even thought you all are trying to as hard as you can, It makes me wonder what are you afraid of ,its not us, it what we say,so if we are wrong,what does it matter to you,and if we are right ,that's what you are afraid of ,that we are right and YOU WILL BE GOING TO HELL!!!
If you don't want to hear what we are here to discuss,go somewhere else, in another area,but you want because you enjoy putting us down,I guess it makes you feel like you are better than us,well,,and one day soon,you'll find out just how right we have been........THEN WHAT? WHO WILL YOU HARASS THEN,THE DEVIL

I am glad that I do not use Jesus Christ as an excuse for my weaknesses, I have enough of my own. I use Him for my strength! Looking forward to Heaven!

Putting down others for their beliefs only shows how unenlightened you truly are. I'm not a Christian, but I respect their right to believe as they wish.

I agree , they make out they're so kind and nice and forgiving but really they are a load of ignorant, mentally disturbed morons full of hate who WANT you to burn in hell. I don't hate anyone enough for that, they want billions to burn in hell. They are sick, twisted,brainwashed cretins who cant look beyond a book.
