I am a Christian, but find it hard to understand how rude some of them can be, or it is just the Yanks(American)I go to ask a question to another group who are not Christians, and I think my questions are very straight forward, and I get some Christian who thinks that they are so smart when I was not even asking them anything. So Christians do other so called Christians annoy you? Jesus could not stand the Hypocrites of his day, and certainly does not stand them today. I do not to church because there is a lot of them around. You might say I am judging, but I am just speaking how I feel,and I am not lying about it either. Liars will not enter Heaven. I love Jesus but I do not have to go church to prove that as just because you go to church does not mean that you are saved.some Christians are very nice, it is the hypocrites I cannot stand, the ones that think people should bow down to them. How do you nice Christians, and yes only the nice ones, react when you come across them?

I can see why a lot of non believers do not come to Christ, because they see a lot of them stuck up.I came from an abusive family, and have had is rough, and now I love Jesus and the Father so much, but I do not go around acting stuck up about it.

It's 3:00am here and I have no intention of being rude. I am a yank and I am a Christian, and I too am annoyed by the rudeness of people of any ilk. Rudeness is never an option as far as I am concerned.
I would say this to you though. Please do not let the hypocrites keep you from church. Yes, they are certainly plentiful in all churches of all denominations, but we cannot let them keep us from worshiping and serving our Lord. I find that I am so much better prepared to get through the week when I have had my Sunday "feeding" of spiritual food. The only beings that really matter when you are in Church are you, God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit.
If you become active in a church, you will find that there are so many really fine people there who love the Lord as much as you do. But, they are not perfect. We all slip and slide on the Christian path, but it is so much easier when we have each other to help us along the way and pick us up when we fall. Jesus said for us to love one another as He loved us.

I feel ya man, but we are all just human beings, we are not programmed like some think, if we were we should be programmed by G-D and then we would not have those snobs out there, but instead we have a free will, to act as we wish to act. And it is deplorable at times how anyone treats anyone in the ways that they do. Whether they are Buddhists, Jews, Christians and or Muslims? There is only one G-D no matter what religion and no matter what name they wish to use. They need to get off that roller coaster and their high worshipping of themselves that they are so right and perfect. And they all will someday,just you have faith and go forward and love and be loved. Leave them in the dust, ignore them dear and Happy New Year. G-D hears your prayers don't ever forget that and he hears you now.

Hebrews 10:25 says " not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching". When Paul said "not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together" he was talking about a church service. Since the bible is inspired by God, that is God saying you should attend church. Jesus said in Luke 6:46 "But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and do not do the things which I say"? In 1John3:14, God(through John) gives each of us a test so we can know if we are true believers. He says "We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren". "The brethren" in that passage is fellow believers in Christ. If a person is a true believer in Christ, He(or she) will love other believers in Christ and want to be around them. You sound like you don't want to get anywhere's near them. My advice to you is to find yourself a good bible believing church and start attending.

I think by this time of night (4 am) everyone has been drinking for hours. What do you expect?
One more thing. Don't judge the message by the messenger. Some christians are rude, boring, annoying, hypocrites, wrong, sinful, jerks,etc.etc. But God loves us anyway. It's not about us. It's about Christ.

Probably by choice..... Just as found in some atheists here...
Both Christian and non-christian alike cannot be looked upon as a group and summarized as having a character nature..... it just isn't so...
Individuals with this character nature would be precise.....
It is just the nature of some people to act and react as such......
Even some who call themselves Christian.....

Self righteousness is a blindness that was applied to Pharisees..many Christians become puffed up instead of humbling themselves daily in the sight of God

Same reason why some Atheists are just plain rude, ignorent, and feeble.
If they are a smart person, i wont judge them. If they are arrogent, i feel sad for them, and just ignore them and let them be happy in their self absorbed, close-minded world.
