Christianity agrees with atheism that religion is a crutch, but Christianity also teaches that mankind is lame.

I would say that's true. I was thinking about that the other day when my atheist brother brought up the whole crutch thing. Crutches are wonderful, when I broke my knee cap they kept me walking.

True on the first one, but atheism also teaches about the cruelties of mankind. We just acknowledge that it's up to humans to better humankind. Not some sky wizard.

I feel religion is a crutch...Atheism says true...Christianity tells people to hide their eyes and "have faith" so they won't notice that it's true.

False. Christianity teaches that religion and God is salvation, not a hinderance. It is true that Christianity teaches that we're all totally worthless as crap and can only be redeemed by God and Jesus.

as much as I hate to agree, your right, it teaches u that we aren't perfect, and we need god (aka "the crutch") to help us along. I kinda like having a "crutch" as you call it to help me along and give me some hope at times,....I guess my glass is half full!

Very true. Not only do they sell the cure, they are the spreaders of the disease as well.
What an idea for a big buisness!

false...Christanity teaches that you should appreciate God's gift of people and his gifts of life.
