Christians do not believe in magic but do believe in the power of God and the Holy Spirit. A Muslim or Atheist could be my neighbor, and Christians should love their neighbor more than self. Best things in life are sometimes very hard, but not near as hard as dying on the cross.

Because he is a person without a commitment either way as to the existence of a God, it would best suit him to be an atheist, always having to search for the truth of what he can not answer or understand. Kind of a permanent hell here on earth, what fun to watch him go in circles.

excellent question-- I think I would keep that finger tucked away and not use it. The whole point of accepting God is that you do it by free will. I wouldn't feel right making that choice for anyone either way. But the point of your question is really "is it better to be atheist or Muslim." Quite honestly, I think it would be better for them to be Muslim. Having faith in something is better than having faith in nothing.

I would say an atheist. I would chose this with any religion, not just islam. I mean, if it was christianity vs. atheism, I would still go atheism. Religion can cause a lot of problems and i try to avoid it. Yet, i respect everyone's religion.
That's my point of view.

I'm not a Christian but I wouldn't wave any magic finger at them. Its they're choice what religion or none religion they want to be. I wouldn't want to take away they're free will like that.

What would be the reason to point any fingers at anybody? Even though I am a Christian I am saying it is not necessary for me to do that because it is not my place to judge anybody, the only one that is going to judge is Jesus Christ himself.
And you don't need magic for this answer! Thanks for the 2 points!

I probably wouldn't change them in to anything... I would rather talk to an agnostic person who acknowledges that there is a higher power out there than a muslim who wants to kill you if you believe anything contrary to what they believe, or an athiest who doesnt believe in anything.

I wouldn't. Although I believe there is only one way to God, I also respect each person's right to choose for themselves.

Christians don't have any "magic fingers."

As a Christian, whatdya think we would want for them to be? We would want them to know Jesus as Lord and Saviour and KNOW that they had eternal life.....sorry, there's really no other option when you've met Him and He's changed your life!
