Non Christians..?

Question

so many times I have seen Christians say that we non Christians dislike/hate/have something against Jesus
even when we post that we do not , they still wish to believe this
as a non Christian , I find the teachings of Jesus quite enlightening
can we clear this up for those who think otherwise ?
do any other non Christians appreciate the teachings of Jesus ?
have you found comfort in some of his words ?
or do you truely hate him as suggested by some ?

Answer 1

First, I can't hate someone I haven't met. But even if I had met him, I have a hard time hating anyway.

But what is there about the true teachings of Jesus to hate anyway? It's obvious that he travelled and studied many ways of life and different religious teachings; incorporating all of it into his thinking. His ideals were beautiful.

What I don't like is how his teachings have been twisted by power/money hungry people for their own benefit.

Answer 2

THE HISTORY OF JESUS...

Was written directly by his apostles, the ones that were with him and had not been touched, modifications in the history of John´s the Baptist and his relation with Magdalene had been point, for you to know form Where the history and teachings come, and you think that anybody could figure it out cause the whole moder world come from his ideas, go to Iran and you will not figure it out without been lynched...The hole free world and the life you have today depends directly upon Christianity, like it or not, and I don´t see you are doing better in any non muslim countries, from Argentina to Canada or whole Europe..why you are here then?, don´t slander at least the fact of Christ, saying maybe didn´t exist or his teachings had been touch cause is not truth at all, about the church..ok man...go ahead, the truth is the truth and mistakes had been done, still much better than many Imans I know, very good a central body in which Christianism had set standarts too. people can have their beliefs, if you don´t know, good, but don´t speak just to trow **** over what is not related to you cause it looks more like the racism you declare to hate.

Answer 3

It's not Jesus we loathe (hate is too strong a word) it's Christians, who judge and want to rule the rest of us. Jesus was a philospher, who taught a lot of wisdom over 2,000 years ago. There have been other good philosophers before and since. Like the Buddha, he had many good ideas about how life should be lived, and I'm sure he would cringe if he could see the rubbish being done in his name.

Answer 4

I do respect the teachings of Buddha, Jesus as best, I find amazingly simple, direct, intelligent and useful, I don't need any church in between, Hindu approach to life is amazingly interesting too, unfortunately for the history of Mohamed and the segregationist of Koran I can´t agree with wanting to rule the world or classificatory with a name the ones who doesn´t have your beliefs and to think they will come back as pigs, I find many of this teachings deeply regrettable and superficial as to say that the language of God is Arabic...but of course as a Christian I support the right to exist to all the people and the like of looking for their happiness while no hurting others in the process.
FOR KALLAN...
Your time to fill the question and your beliefs but I have to point that the birth, life and death of christ is very well documented and his miracles verified clinically and register today in places as Fatima, Lourdes and Betania miracles of people standing up and walk, cured by cancer, aids and more are very well documented, as much as the romans sending the order to kill him from Rome to the tiny and far Israel.
In the way that you speak and the way you express yourself you know nothing about Jesus so please be carful with your words, and Christians does very much are like Jesus but we have just 2 cheeks.

I don´t think that the Indian people is well know, specially in this country for theiraltruism either, are they?

Answer 5

I'm a hindu by birth. I have accepted all of Jesus's teachings.(now there cannot be a better case of a non-christian christian! lol!)
But i do NOT do some "christian" things such as
1) Go to church and make a show of it, like the pharisees did in their time!
2)Support "wars" against terrorism.
3)Hate sects that don't hold my views
etc. etc. etc.
There are far too many "Christian" things that the present day christians are so bent upon doing that Jesus would never have dreamed of!
What a loss , that his words are so misinterpretted and used to exploit the masses.
But that he warned us about, well in advance.

Answer 6

I am a Pagan, and I do not hate Jesus at all. I was raised Christian, and always thought that Jesus was very interesting. I think he was a very good teacher, who had a lot to say on social justice issues. All in all, a very interesting man with a lot of very interesting teachings, but not the son of God. However, I believe he was inspired by his God.
Blessed Be,

Answer 7

I can think of anything to say that hasn't been said, so I'll just echo. I'm an Atheist and as such I don't believe in anything supernatural, but that doesn't stop me from recognizing that Jesus was a peace loving man with very intelligent and well thought out ideals. Truly a teacher to be followed. Atheists for Jesus!

Answer 8

I have no strong feelings for Jesus one way or another. If he did exist, and I'm sure he did, he was no doubt a good man and a very charismatic individual. He had to be, in order to attract all those followers. I think that if he did live a lot of the stories about him are exaggerated.

But it's not my religion, it's not my issue. I really don't care.

To paraphrase Gandhi: I have no issue with Christ. Some of his fanclub, however, I can do without.

Answer 9

There is nothing in Christianity that cannot be found elsewhere and earlier. Remember, there are no "words of Jesus", only the accounts of what others said, he said, to others who interpreted this as was appropriate. I doubt that many people "hate" Jesus, but many certainly hate the notion that all truth and wisdom stems from a failed Jewish insurrectionist who seemingly relied on Greek mythologists to translate their version of history.

Answer 10

The things he taught make sense when they don't get twisted by the Christians to mean something they don't. That is, assuming he existed and it wasn't all made up.

I have nothing against Jesus. I have a problem with his hypocritical followers and the ridiculousness of the religion itself (a talking snake? People living to be 900 year old? Honestly, come on. How dumb can you really be to take that as fact?).
