Why do people bash churches? I might know the answer they don't have love and enter peace?

Answer 1

Just Kidding,
you are right most religions have no love.

Answer 2

No wrong answer. The answer is that many (not all, but enough to leave a bad taste in would and could be believers mouths) churches have lost site of what God is all about-ministry to people in need, whether they believe in Christ or not. The Church of the 21st century stays inside its four walls,and enters worship seeking Gods hand and not his face.Very few meet the expectations that God lists in the Bible. People aren't bashing churches, churches are bashing themselves. By not showing the true love of Christ and failing to minister to the people of this world.

Answer 3

No it could be that Churches primary focus is on money.

Or the history of the church being filled with so much bloodshed and torture. The torture of those whose only crime was they had different views then the church!

Any orginazation that feels it is so powerful that it can give a death sentence to anyone that doesn't think as they say is NOT an orginazation to be admired! It is also an orginazation that must be eliminated for the good of secioty!

The last thing this world needs is another Inquisition!

Answer 4

Why do churches bash those who disagree with them? I might know the answer, they don't have love and enter peace? - whatever that means.

Answer 5

People bash churches because churches are human institutions, made up of imperfect people. People in churches can be mean, narrow minded, hurtful and hateful just like people anywhere. People in churches can also be kind and loving.

Answer 6

It depends on which people and which churches. There are people who are anti-religious who attack religion perse. I don't particularly mean "atheists" most of whome just mind their own business--but some have an agenda--or get their jollies ridiculing others' beliefs.

Most of th eremain criticism is direct not at "churches" but at a ultra-right-wing segment of the American population who have repeatedly expressed intolerance of others--and who claim to be "Christian" but whose ideology bears no resemblance to what Christ taught--not surprising, since their "doctrine" is little more than a political agenda dressed up in religious trappings. These people get a lot of criticism--and should get more. But again--its not criticism of their religion--but of their failure to folllow that religion.

Answer 7

Yes. It's because the churches have no love or peace.

Answer 8

In America, it is because conservative Christians have co-opted religious leadership positions and turned them into revenue generating political action businesses whose goal is the destruction of America’s Constitution and secular democratic republic form of government.

They want to change the (non-theistic) US Constitution to include their religious beliefs and turn America into a theocratic fascist totalitarian state based on the doctrine of their brutally judgmental and humanity-hating Old Testament God.

They want to inject their mythology based on the folktales of historically obscure tribes of illiterate Semitic goat herders who lived more than 2000 years ago into our science classrooms and return America to a pre-scientific and pre-literate era when religions were free to rape, torture, and whack the heads off anyone they wanted to.

Far from being bashed or persecuted, they have been granted immunity to destroy the very nation that grants them their freedom.
