That many Christian religions are very forceful, and instantly judge you and try to convert you if you do not conform with them.
Also, that many people who believe in Intelligent Design are rude. See below.

I am a Christian and proud to be one. What i dislike about christian behavior is some are phony and overbearing ( just like a lot of atheist). What do i find unbecoming of atheist is? What kinda bugs me is that they always ask for proof, when i believe they know in their heart that there is a God, but they refuse to recieve this truth. They think that if there was a God, He should act the way they think He should and when He dosen't or bad things happen, they say , "there couldn't possibly be a God and let all this stuff happen.",,Also, that they always get mad when they are told their going to hell ( when they don't believe in God, how could they believe in hell)..p.s.. Christians didn't make up hell, it is in the bible ( and it say's that those that don't believe are going to hell).

About Christians, it's mostly that they're so sure of something that I feel is so wrong. The go by an old book, written by man with stories of a jealous, murderous God. A book that's full of contradictions. And then they take this book, and think that they are better then everyone else because an over exaggerated rabbi "died for their sins". Now most Christians say the don't think they're better than anyone else, but if you think you are going to heaven, and that I am not, you think you're better than me, and why, because you ask a carpenter for forgiveness?
That's the gist of it, really I love everyone, but it's just the arrogance mixed with the ignorance that I don't like. Sometimes I feel like the only person who thinks I don't know all, let alone many of the answers of life, and you know what, that's okay.

What I dislike most about Christian behavior is the ignorant arrogance: the certainly about things that are false, about things they haven't made any effort whatsoever to understand (evolution, the nonexistence of God, the morality of abortion, the soul, etc.).
Of course the constant lying is a close second.
I don't mind being judged by Christians, but of course it does become a problem when it turns into legislation based on nothing but religious dogma. If it had no effect on me, I could simply ignore the ignorant arrogance and the lying, but in fact Christians have a LOT of political power, and have done terrible damage to the United States as they sell out the nation to their religious organizations. That makes it impossible to ignore the bad behavior.

Well, I'm not really a Christian anymore, but I'm not an atheist. However, Christians can bug the crud out of me because they sometimes say (on Answers especially), "Beleeve in jesus or u r goin 2 hellllllllll!" and "Y dont u luv jesus?" I don't know many atheists, but they seem pretty normal to me. Some Christians are really cool also.

I dislike the willfull ignorance displayed by so many Christians. It is clear that most of them (yes, most) believe in their religion simply because they don't know any better. They have no desire to study and educate themselves on anything that might make their faith hard to support.
This would not be an issue for me, really, if it wasn't for the fact that they try to enforce this ignorance on others, via politics.
At the same time, I myself take issue with atheists that intentionally try to hurt believer's feelings, insult them, etc. Being bad to others is wrong, regardless of whether you believe in a god or not. Personally, I'd just like to see a little more good will towards others all around.

In "Letter to a Christian Nation", Sam Harris put the dilemma of atheists the best.
"Thousands of people have written to tell me that I am wrong not to believe in God. The most hostile of these communications have come from Christians. This is ironic, as Christians generally imagine that no faith imparts the virtues of love and forgiveness more effectively than their own. The truth is that many who claim to be transformed by Christ's love are deeply, even murderously, intolerant of criticism. While we may want to ascribe this to human nature, it is clear that such hatred draws considerable support from the Bible. How do I know this? The most disturbed of my correspondents always cite chapter and verse."
I have seen far to much of this deep, murderous intolerance in reference to too many things. (Homosexuality, evolution, etc.) There's a sect out there right now that is going to the funerals of soldiers killed in Iraq. They go and hold up signs saying "God Hates You", and "God Hates F*gs" and "Thank God for Dead Soldiers!" because they say that we're at war with Iraq because God is punishing us for tolerating homosexuality. It's frightening that these people behave this way in "God's" name. People also do this outside the funerals of Aids patients. They torment the already grieving families, and then they call themselves moral.

Catholic, and I find the same behavior unbecoming of both groups. When they (either group) refuses to respect or acknowledge the rights of the other group. Atheists do this when they ridicule and mock Christians, Christians do this when they condemn atheists to hell. IT's childish on both their parts.

My experience with Christians is that they tend to be inherently dishonest. I've been cheated twice in business and both times the person who cheated me was an outspoken Christian. Moreover, Christians also seem predisposed to lying. They commonly make up fictions to discredit other religions and fabricate conversion experiences.

I'll be fair on this one today: From what I've seen on here, most Athiests do not like the fact that some "Christians" try to force belief on them. But on that same notion, they refute only to confuse. (But one person whom I guess is Athiest was more understanding. But of course our conversation came from a Joke, "me calling them commies" mainly.) Now what I have a problem is where they say "God doesn't exist" when there is unsurmountable proof that God does exist. They like to say things like "neutrons and atoms give us blah blah blah." But then who made the atoms and neutrons? Example: If a scientist took a pile of dirt and added atoms & Neutrons, would life from at their hands.? I think not.

I, a Christian have had contact w/ atheists on here & I noticed that as long as I was nice to them they were nice to me, we are all people no matter what differences we
may have , I just fell bad that they won't believe in what I
believe in
better to believe in God/Jesus & find out they are not true then to NOT believe & find out they are true
( I know they are , but to each their own )
