Deke,we are presenting and defending the Gospel of Jesus Christ..We(Christians) are not elitists by any means,nor is Christianity a false elitism. What would you do if you were given light on any particular subject and could save lives by presenting it to others,knowing full well that those who did not believe would be eternally lost?
What if you had a formula for curing all types of cancer...and no one believed you?
We do not enjoy dangling Hell over any one's head...it is not a game to us or a sick way of torturing other's psyches.
We would rather,that people who are in darkness,would come to the light...and would fall in Love with the one who sacrificed Himself and paid a ransom for many.

I wouldn't say it's "faux" because I believe it's very real. Though, to me, it seems that any organized religion is pretty much that way. On the other hand, most any organization tends to carry a certain amount of hubris.

I'm Christian and I believe we all deserve hell, except for the grace of God we all can change that and pride, God has no remedy for.

Absolutely true. Islam is the same. Any religion that claims to be the only way to God should be regarded with skepticism if not comtempt.

Isn't the truth the truth? If you don't believe the truth, does your BELIEF make you a member of the body of those who do believe the truth? Isn't atheism elitism in its truest sense.

It is more like "Praise the Lord, my God is God!".
Jesus warned us not to look down on others, but to tell them their need for a savior, and the Good News that Jesus is that true Savior!

exactly, but there's more to christianity...
christianity really exist because it proves that there are really stupid people to believe in lies, deceptions and false promises and it's helps True Spiritual people to avoid these types of people (anyone in religion)...
so, christianity and religion DOES serve a purpose...
and if you're have ANY True Spiritual intelligence, you'll avoid and eliminate christianity and religion in your Life:
Here's the Solution:
Create a private, personal, direct, divine Relationship with Our Creator and save your Soul from religion.
Only with Our Creator's Love and Peace will we be Truly Free!
Love and Believe in Our Creator;
Love and Believe in Yourself.
"religion is Spiritual fraud"; "religion is the Worse invention of humanity" - Jesus Christ, Buddha and any one else with Spiritual intelligence.
Without God, there is No Love; Without religion, there are No Wars!
atheists = all the people in religion

Don't take our word for it, we are just repeating what Jesus said. You can chose to believe him or not. I believe he was the Son of God and that he died and resurrected to pay for our sins.

tee hee we are created in God's image--say you lived alone on an Island-would you be content-maybe if you never received true love and adoration you would-yet deep in your heart you would long for that.
God who is a fellowship-because it is his nature and nurture-an example of 3 forms being one H2o water steam or ice -always h2o yet comes in 3 forms.
Well this God who has fellowship within himself desired to create a world with people that could join his fellowship-
back to the Island-even as you talk words come from your mouth-they are not part of you yet they are you in essence-so in a way you can fellowship with yourself-yet wouldnt you desire more??? communication adoration, yet to give the right -free will to others to reject you too? would you give yourself to your creation-would you come to die to forgive them of their rejection of you-in an attempt to show your love to have their fellowship???
this is deap stuff-you may just get a little of it-I pray with time u will understand the heart of God to love you, adore you, care for you as a good shepherd John 10
you may think im totally nuts- I am 165 IQ raised a Jew taught to reject Jesus too. Now he is my savior and best friend and I do worship him -i have tears in my eyes right now-he means so much to me. John 3 repented of my rejection of him and rebellion=sin and let him come to live within my heart to be my best friend.
have a nice day in the prince of peace Isaiah 9:6 "Unto us a child is born a son given, and he shall be the almighty God and the prince of peace." PEACE, David
I happen to be a Jew and Hell is our choice to weep forever for what we chose to reject today in our free will-Revelation 19-22 also describes the joy of heaven to recieve Jesus as savior and best friend. its more than elitism-it is becoming a child of the king of kings.
