Of course not. It's not that sort of illness. It's a matter of the quality of "soil" in the heart.
I suppose there are things that can be done to improve the condition of the heart, but that's between God and the individual. God gives the increase, not me or any other Christian. I think it's when we lose sight of that that we hinder others instead of helping them.
God is the cure. An institution won't help them.

i'm christian and the answer is definite. you're not any further insane in case you reject Christianity. Many experience you need to be some style of killer, blood drinker, devil worshiper with a view to no longer except christianity. I had a false impression of the bible even as i turned right into a "toddler Christian". It changed into through misguidence and misinterpretation. I went via (or better effective yet changed into positioned via) a negative situation. I had an agonizing quite a lot supernatural calling to seek the trinity (Father, Son, Holy ghost). it truly is the merely project that were given me via!!!! there's a time in everyones existence the position they ought to make a call to both trust or no longer. it truly is human nature to opt to work out, contact, experience, and scent. in case you word a unicorn you've self assurance, yet when someone tells you they talked about one, you gained't. you merely ought to do your area and God will do something. the biggest project is that you study the bible in the previous you commit to reject the message. In existence there'll continuously be an party the position you could not clarify why something happend, why you do not experience on my own once you could not see absolutely everyone, why the no longer accessible is made accessible. there'll be a level were technological awareness merely gained't decrease it and also you should imagine previous. With that being reported, i must inform you that it truly is less complicated and wiser to seek out the truth for your self, in the previous it seeks you. reliable success and that i wish you locate your answer quickly.

We have been informed by apostle Paul that not many nobles or intellects are willing to bow to the superior knowledge of the Christ. since Satan is Said to Rule this World in the current system...only us fools are going to survive the judgement hour .A wise thing of man is a foolish thing to God. All the wise ones a usually ruling the poor stupid ones like me. So how could we ever pass a law ??? nor would we want to...as the saying goes " convince a man against his will and he'll be of the same opinion still..Your still free and not on a weekend pass so enjoy the freedom while it last...or slave for a worthy master the Christ....

No, it seems you have a mental issue for thinking like that. I am a sane, well-informed individual who happens to be an atheist. I don't go around trying to convert every Christian I see into a non believer. It is their choice.

No, bobkins lovey, Christianity is not an intellectual pursuit, it is a spiritual one. No one can choose to become a Christian, one has to be called to it. Many play at it, but to be spiritually reborn in Christ is a Gift. Jesus said many are called, few chosen. We send out the call everyday, but He chooses the ones He wants to spend eternity with, and they accept or reject the invitation.

So pretty much what you are saying, is that if one doesn't believe in what you believe in they MUST be sick, am I correct? Because whats to say you are right? Whats to say you live your life and you die and go to heaven. Wouldn't you be embarassed if it didn't exsist, or you were believing it wrong. What if the Jews are right, or the Budists? Hmmm. Its not your decision to force others to believe what you want them to believe. Just because they believe diffrent, doesn't make them sick. How would you feel if they felt the same way? You know this is why christians make me so freaking sick. This is why I am no religon. I choose to just live my life and go with the flow. You guys are always so judgmental.

No. I like the American model where (supposedly) people are free to believe as they see fit.
Personally, I subscribe to the Christian world-view.

I love it.
I can't wait until someone tries to answer with scriptures or call you to repentance.
I'll laugh about that for a while.
And these people getting angry at you? I see people who are angry about the exposed dark side of their beliefs.
