How can they not recognize that the entire NT was plagiarized from the Jewish Tanakh?
How can they call their god the kind and loving god when he condemns most of his children to eternal torment simply because they don't believe that some Jew was actually God Himself.
Why do they expend so much effort converting people to their way of thinking instead of working to make the earth a better place for all mankind?
Why do they deny that any atrocities committed in the past had anything whatsoever to do with Christian culture?
Why do they insist on identifying exactly who's a real Christian and who's not a "real" christian?
Why do they insist that people who don't agree with them aren't able to discern the "Truth?"

à don't understand why Christians say that God is against Abortion, because it says so in the bible. Read 2 Kings 15:16 or 1 Samuel 15:3.
I do not understand God killing period, or well at least not Christians, who say god is good and ignore all the violence in the bible. (But sometimes say the Koran must be outlawed because of the violence in it)
I have a really hard time understanding why Christians laugh or get angry when I say I believe in Zeus, but is the existence of Zeus not just as likely as the existence of God.
I don't understand why Christians say Creationism is a scientific theory, but when you mention that then there is the possibility of multiple creators, they look at you like you really don't get it. (Which I don't)
I don't understand why Christians seem to think that when you do not have a religion you can not have moral values. Moral values are coming from empathy, humanity, common sense and love, not the bible (see the violence) or a religion.
Oh and I don't understand why every time I use a text from the Old Testament to get a message across, about the bible being violent. there is a christian saying, "o That is just the Old Testament, it doesn't really count, you should read the New Testament." Either have the Old testament in the bible or don't.

One of the main things that i don't understand is why they don't believe in the "Big Bang" when realistically this seems the logical and almost 100% proven reason why where hear, now i don't doubt the Christian religion, but there are some things like that which are obviously the truth, also "Evolution" is another. But then again, if someone was to write a bible with such intense knowledge in it, how would they make it up, i would never think people of that day where so intelligent.

Why does the mythology of redemption through blood make sense to Christians?
Why trust the Bible more than any other book?
Why do they ignore the history of the Bible and the politics that led to its creation, and therefore fail to view it as primarily a product of a committee?
Why do they claim something exclusive rather than seeing the possibility that other groups are equally as wise?
How do they reconcile the irascible, vengeful God of the Old Testament with the mellower God of Jesus, then followed by the return of the God of Vengeance in The Revelation?

How the idea of a ritual human sacrifice appeals to you as a legitimate solution to anything?
And how you can think that the basis of your religion is somehow different from the Pacific Islanders who used to toss virgin females into volcanoes to appease the Volcano god.
It's the same, but with a Middle Eastern/Mediterranean twist.
It's such a distorted view of the world that, once adopted, it prevents the individual from seeing anything clearly.

Why do you believe that the Bible was written by God? There were approx. 40 authors of the books those books were hand picked by other men. The historical fact is that these books were written by men, some books were chosen others rejected. How is it that you believe these particular books to be the word of God and why not the other books that were rejected? There is no proof that any of the Bible is anything more than a collection of stories written by men.

I don't understand how you think faith is more important than actions.
I don't understand how you think someone could pay for someone else's sins.
I don't understand how two innocent, naive children could have made a mistake, chosen knowledge over their ignorance and then not only be punished brutally but had their "sin" passed down to everybody for all time.
And I don't understand how a holy book with so many flaws and atrocities could be considered "holy".

1.What I don't understand is how can Christians or Christianity is monotheism or monotheist when they are actually worshipping Three Gods?
2.What I don't understand is how can Christians say that every action that was made by Muslims is a propaganda when:
# they (Christians) themselves send missionaries to Muslims countries to convert the MUSLIMS and only MUSLIMS to Christianity.The other religions conversion to Christianity was NOT important.
#They are the one who send missionaries to the Non-Arab Muslims to teach them (Non-Arab Muslims) the ARABIC BIBLE and CLAIMING to the Muslims that they are TEACHING THE QURAN TO THEM(Non-Arab Muslims)!!!!!!!!.
That's all for today,Kids.
Thumbs Down............

They call themselves Christians, (Christ-like) but are so far from it...
Why are they judgemental, pious and downright mean.
Pious to not understand that there are other interpretations of scriptures other than their narrow view...pious to not accept other religions than theirs...pious to want to push their views on everyone and make everyone believe as they do....
Fundies, remember you are not God...you do not have all of the answers.

Just asking this question seems a sin/judgemental. But what I want to know is how can someone who goes around claiming to be a Christian judge their fellow humans' behavior? Even when it is pointed out to them that they are doing this?
