take away those who chose not to obey or "sinners/unbelievers"
what would the world be with all Mormons, all Catholics, all Muslims, all Christians...noone to disagree..
would it be the "new world or "utopia/heaven"?
who would they have to look down upon, is the entire religion about elitism and condescending upon "them" or basically every other human alive who believes differently (all of us)

I don't consider myself as part of an elite group. On the contrary, I am no better than anyone else, for all were made in the image of God and all have sinned. My salvation comes not by my own works, but is a gift from God available to everyone.

We have a right to opinion as who we are. For one thing man does not try to seek the things of the creator. What he sees is in his own head and manipulates others to do so. so you have these leaders that go about making rules/religion is their set of rules and rituals that change the way one sees things blind leading the blind. The world is full of formulas and programs and advice,peddling techniques for what you can get are want out of a religion. Some fall for that non-sense. It is our creator that we deal with, and he knows far better than man what you need. If you decide for God,living a life for God worshiping him. it follows that you do not fuss about religion and what man wants and rules and regulations of any sect. There is far more to ones life than religion.Far more to your outer appearance than what man put on you.Religion will tie you down to a job description,careless in the things of God. And you count far more to God than just that.. Faith is the substance of things hope for the evidence of things unseen. What is ones hope and what did Jesus promise in his word,do you believe he will come through are will you give up prematurely.

I tend to think that something that goes unchallenged eventually becomes corrupt. The catholic church of ancient is an example. The Christian's of today have to demonstrate their Christianity to show unbelievers that theirs is the right path. God bless the unbelievers.

Oh course it can. Non believer do they make our lives as Christians any easier and contributes nothing to the peace of our lives.People can believe what ever they want to or not believe.I just want them to stop being so nasty to me because I am a Christian.
