What makes you think that christians are some sort of super humans without any flaws?
In fact christians are people like you and me, can have a nasty temper, be scared, mean and what not.
The only difference is:
Christians get away with it, as in the end their sins are forgiven - yours arent...

The word Christian being defined as "Christ-like" I don't understand why this guy's railing on people. Christ didn't come to earth with a baseball bat and start bashing everyone into believing what He said. He spoke the truth in love to be accepted or rejected by the hearer. I can't speak for what's in this man's heart, but this truth stands: From the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. If this man's word is violence and hatred, then I must conclude that his heart is violence and hatred. The only display of anger we see from Jesus is when he condemned the money-changers in the Temple. This man says he's not weak, but if that's the case, why does he so easily give in to anger-riddled tirade?

Ummm....just because some ignorant person comes into YA and says "I'm a Christian" and then says some nasty stuff...hardly makes it true. People online can make up all sorts of stuff about who they are and what they represent.
Obviously this person is not a Christian..they are trying to make Christians look bad...and you fell for it.

I am a Christian, studied in the manuscripts;
First of all, you give the answer, but you don't say what the person was reacting to.
Obviously, it really pissed him off.
Why do you think a Christian is supposed to be a wimp who doesn't defend himself?
Why do you think a Christian is supposed to act like a doormat?
Why do you think that a Christian is supposed to just walk around saying "peace be with you", "God bless you one and all",
"I know you just said something insulting to my God, but I love you, oh, praise be to God, my brother.....".
My friend, you have a completely false idea of what it means to be a Christian.
A Christian is learned in the Word of God;
a Christian is a can-do, strong, "get it done" type of individual, who has a working knowledge of the plan of God for this age.
A Christian does not allow people to negatively affect their children, nor do they put up with insults to God.
Most important to answering your question:
A Christian is just like anyone else in that we are human beings, who get mad like you do, who make mistakes like you do, who do things we regret like you do, who do not allow people to call us wimps, like you do.
I am sick and tired of hearing all this garbage like "If you were REALLY a Christian......"
I AM "really a Christian", and I don't put up with nonsense, attacks on the Living God, or people who try to influence my children in a negative way. If you are looking for some wimpy religion, look somewhere else, and if you feel that Christians SHOULD be wimps, I am happy to disappoint you.

One man's voice does not speak for all Christians. To judge a group as a whole based upon the impressions of one is called prejudice.

You are stereotyping Christians according the the actions of one person, who is really not a Christian, because if he were, then he would not make that statement or use that kind of language. By stereotyping us you are placing yourself in his category. Do not judge. Accept people for who they are today, not on their past, and do not desire them to be what you want them to be. We were originally created in the image of God, not in the image of a man. We were originally created ion the image of God's holiness, but were corrupted by sin. We are all in the same boat---sinners, some saved by grace and some looking to be saved by grace.

he's a Christian alright because he's tryin to force his faith
but at the same time he isn't a good Christian
Good Christians would disprove wat this guy is doin
just because of wat one person say, doesnt mean it's the whole thing
one of my best friends is a Catholic, he acts in no way violent or wicket, but one of the most nicests guys u'll ever meet
example, wat if i found an article of a person that is against religion and the guy also announced that he is stupid and homosexual,
can i go ahead assume that all anti religionists are homosexual and not intelligent? no, because wat one person does, it's their cause, not the majority, there are more than just one type of Christian u knoe, as in there are more than one type of person (derr)

Not all christians are this evil, but many are. Just look at the christian moms who drown their 4 children and cut the arms off their babies.

Religions are ripe for abuse in order to gain power, control and set norms/morals. While I'll agree that Christians have been especially good at this kind of abuse -- they aren't the only ones, for sure.

First you bait a bunch of people with inflammatory words, then when one person gets mad enough, you use his quote to start another fight. And then you say we are F'd up?
