it seems to me that more and more teenage/older christians are becoming scared of admitting their faith - the word of god is to tell others of his love for us yet, so many other christians i know just wont admit their faith as they are scared of what others think!
y is this and wats ur opinions?

Admit your faith not by telling the world "I'm a Christian", but rather acting like one. walking the walk is more impressive than talking the talk.

I have nothing to be ashamed of, but there is a time and place for mentioning certain things and for not mentioning certain things.
If you have friends who mock those who have faith in God, then they are not good friends and you would be better finding some others who are less arrogant and better mannered.
When I was at university there were lots of students who mocked Christianity - and all these were UK students. The Catholics were less arrogant and more open minded although the others saw themselves as the intellectual elite. I found it much easier to mention Jesus or God with people from other countries, especially countries outside Europe. Hope this helps.

Its funny how things change, when I was at school I was nearly lynched for saying I was an Atheist!
Think the problem Christians face today is that very few people agree with them, they are now a minority in society, and they attract unwanted attention for their faith, hence kids learn to keep their mouths shut and live peacefully rather than being bullied, wish I had kept my mouth shut when I was at school lol!

I am not ashamed for my faith and my God however too many christians make such bad examples (including myself sometimes) that I think God might be ashamed of us. Let's be as fanatical about Jesus as the Muslims and see how the world will change WITHOUT VIOLENCE

it rather is not incorrect for women to admit liking intercourse. there is usually a detrimental reaction to every person leaping up and waving a flag and shouting by a megaphone approximately their sexuality. You stated,"I appreciate everbody's ideals and faiths...." however the only perception which you haven't any longer respected is that in line with danger we don't prefer to have your intercourse life shoved in our faces. you haven't any longer have been given any reason to be ashamed or pleased with your intercourse life, in case you have been the two, you should work out a therapist. it rather is what it is so savor it. i do no longer think of rather everyone seems to be judging you or providing you with a detrimental vibe with the aid of fact of your playing intercourse. it rather is considering which you're making it public know-how. you will locate that maximum rather everyone seems to be the two aggravated with the help of moronic adult men that talk approximately intercourse for all time besides. it rather is rather boring. As for society asserting it? It does not. It does not comprehend what you do till you tell it. the different option is: possibly it rather is you judging you, no longer society.

I am not afraid. I am a Seventh Day Adventist and proud of it. My teenage daughter tells all her friends in the public school that she attends the same thing. they laugh at her because she goes to church on Sat not Sun but she says it is what the Bible tells us to do and they have all at one time or another come with her just to check it out so she is not ashamed either.unfortuantley many are

even if we wont admit it everybody wants to fit in, i think their are sterotypical views of every religion and people are scared they dont want to be judged by others of their faith.
I think christianity is seen as uncool and boring,
Paganism ( thats me!) Is seen as devil worship and sacrifices and using bad magick, or really cool and people think you can kill people and do stuff like sabrina the teeenage witch!
Muslims- your a terrorist
I think people want show there nice and should be liked and so try to hide their faith so they dont look different

You should never be ashamed if thats who you are. its the none acceptance of society that is shameful these days hence why so many people are afraid to tell people that they follow a faith.
Im a christian and im not ashamed of it because it's who i am.

I am not ashamed to admit that I do not believe in old Jewish fairy tales, an invisible father in the sky and that man had to kill the son of God in order to be "saved". Why, are you?

I am not ashamed in being Christian, I am proud of who I am and what I believe in. If someone is ashamed of their faith, they need to choose another religion.
