What is it that you don't like about Christians?

Question

I've seen at least 10 questions about Christians in the past 15 mins. I'm curious to know.

Answer 1

I don't like that certain Christians tell me that I'm going to hell because I don't believe exactly what they believe. If someone lives on an island, has no other people around, knows nothing of society, can you honestly think that this person will spend his afterlife in a fiery pit of despair and pain? It sounds just like a Sunday School tale to scare children into behaving. Old fairy tales such as Little Red Riding hood, Cinderella, etc, didn't turn out as happily ever after, they were to teach children to behave, and have good manners. I respect Christians, they can believe whatever they want, but please I am happy with my own beliefs, and don't want to believe what you do.

Answer 2

Well, I'm a Christian but you shouldn't be judging me. I would never preach to anyone about religion. I don't want to be preached to so why would I do it? I hate when someone tries to act like they know everything and tells me what I should believe but it isn't only Christians that do this. All religions try to convert. The people I can't stand are the ones that preach about this and that being wrong but then turn around and do what they just told you not to. Those people are bible toting hypocrites. I do see a lot of religious people being judgmental of others and that is wrong. Christians are not supposed to judge anyone. I try not to do that. I remember where I came from and I do not think I am better than anyone because of where I am today. I do not get told what to believe. I believe what I want to believe and my relationship with God is personal. Everyone has the right to have their relationship with God stay private. Who is anyone to judge? I also do not believe you have to be in Church every Sunday to be a good Christian. A lot of people do there Sunday thing and forget about doing right the rest of the week. I'm not into that. I do right at least 6 days a week, LOL. Just kidding! Take care.

Answer 3

That they place a higher value on their politicians blathering on about what a person can do with their body or what type of people can receive equal treatment under the law than the services and resources the government is intended to manage.

Gee, it's as if their thinking goes... I'd rather have ecoli sit on my dinner plate and have foul water run from my tap after the freaking pot holes broke my car's shocks but since my job was outsourced to India I can't pay for the car insurance anyway and I pray the levy holds thru the next storm cause the house is uninsured... than have a gay person gain equal job protections granted in the Civil Rights amendment to everyone else or heaven forbid the same legal benefits everyone else gets with a state issued marriage license. Oh, and never mind about shipping our national guard out of the nation to fight a pre-emptive war or loosing a respected place in international diplomacy. What a warped sense of priorities!

Answer 4

Well, most are Catholics, which is too big of a messed up topic to type here.
BUT, most believe in a false prophet, their preist, who says he's good, but misleads everyone by teaching lies, instead of truth, picking and choosing what to tell people about the Bible, since they are 99% of the time too lazy to read/ study for themselves.
They also cherish pagan holidays- Easter and Christmas, seeing those as the most important religious days of the year. God had pagan worshippers beheaded by Moses in the Old Testament. He doesn't like it.
So, laziness to not study, or ask questions about, or think for themselves when it comes to religion. It's like lemmings all jumping off the cliff, while the preist stands back and watches- although he will be going over one way or another too.
Therefore they all seal their own doom.

Answer 5

Some people interpret the bible in a strange way. They think they if they tell everyone that their beliefs are stupid and say "believe in my god or go to hell" then they`ll be doing god`s will by helping to spread the religion. Of course, in reality it makes people hate the religion. Its horrible that those Christians who aren`t like that have to deal with hatred, but it was originally caused by other Christians.

Answer 6

They parrot instead of thinking. Speculation and invention is what brought mankind out of being a prey for the predators. The future is denied by believers, written by atheists but used by believers anyway. If believers were really pure, they´d live in a cave, scratch their wounds, eat raw meat and die young.

Answer 7

Not all Christians are the same: there's the good, the bad, and the ugly, such is in all religion.

I just don't like *some* of their false condemnation of Islam, egotistic arrogance, hypocrisy, and sanctimoniousness (you'd want to check this word up, in case you're not sure what it means).

Answer 8

What I don't like about us christians is that we are a minority. Those who would deny their belief in Jesus are not christians. Whoever says, "God loves me even when I worship other gods" does not believe in the same beliefs that Jesus Himself believed. That's what I see especially since I am a minority who has seen what minority life is like. There is a certain authenticity about being a real latino living in a wonderbread world. When I see taco ads on T.V. that have very little to do with authentic mexican food that I grew up with, I realize that people fall for a type of substitute for what is sometimes painful to acknowlede: being unable to identify with the authentic.

An authentic christian life is very scary in peoples minds. So sometimes people fix themselves with lukewarm substitutes... "devil worship"?? because people in the devil worship cool circle group meet and made brownies... and talked about my feelings.

Does that make sense so far? The authentic christian life, "he who believes in me and has not seen me will enter the Kingdom of God", "...create in me a clean heart, and renew a right spirit within me", "go, and SIN NO MORE". ......owch... to stick to one belief sure narrows down the people in the christian faith to only those few who don't just go to church to look good in front of family, to show your boss that you are a churchy employee, to get your spouse to hush up and be quiet already cuz I'm going to heaven because I'm a good person. People need to check themselves before they wreck themselves. I just wish that there were more people that really believed in what they claim and actually got into it with more authentic love and appreciation. They do for "Tickle me Elmo doll".

Peace.

Answer 9

Nothing. Some of my best friends, as well as a large part of my family, are Christians. I have nothing against them personally. I do have issues when Christians (or anyone) take it on themselves to bash my beliefs instead of respecting my right to worship differently.

Answer 10

I don't dislike any person because of their religious affiliation. It's the judgemental aspect of people I dislike because it truly sets the tone for others who share the same affiliation. So, in other words, it's not the religion, it's a trait that certain people have and can be found in every culture, in every religion, in every society. Tolerance is a choice. :)
