That's all, just want to know why they can't live and let live.

Christians get frustrated with stupidity, just like everyone else. Did you think Christians are perfect? We aren't, we are just forgiven.

Your question is very vague and might be better if you were more specific. I am a minister and have been in churches and met Christians in nearly every state in the US, Canada, Mexico, and other foreign countries. I have never met a single Christian of any nationality that was angry with everyone. I am not even sure any were angry at anyone other than what any other normal human being may experience, like traffic, your team losing, breaking down, kids misbehaving, and other normal events that affect anyone to anger.
Live and let live, again not sure of the point you are trying to make. Christians believe every person has the right to choose for themselves their own destiny. Christians know and have accepted the universal truth about the necessity to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior and are mandated by the Bible to share this truth with others. What others do with that truth is completely up to them, whether to accept that truth and receive salvation or reject it. God does not want anyone in Heaven who does not want to be there and therefore He would never force anyone to accept Him. Everyone has a free will to choose, so all I have to say is choose wisely.
I hope that you are not mistaking passion for anger, because if that was the case, then you would have to ask why all Democrats are so angry with Bush and conservatives, and why can't they just live and let live?

Theres a difference between anger and caring. yes, some christians can get angry, which isn't always wrong. They shouldn't get angry at people but we should tell people. The reason why we can't let people "just" live is because people need to be reminded that there is a God and he wants us to know Him and come back to him. People need to know the truth, no matter if it hurts their feelings.

I do not think Christians are angry at everyone. When was the last time you heard of a Christian homicide bomber???? Christians are not the ones blowing up innocent people!!!

Gee, it's troubling to "believe" in an invisible god that abides in the sky and thinks the earth is flat, etc. Wouldn't it make anybody a tad edgy and ready to blow up when someone questions such Bronze Age babble? For us, it would be best if we merely smiled and walked quietly toward the light.

Quite the contrary, true Christians are quite caring and have respect and kindness for all peoples. Christians organize charities and help destitute and poor people all across the world. I would hazard to guess that you don't even know a true Christian and are basing your biases on 1 person, or things you may have read on atheists forums. Your question is totally off base, and has no basis in fact.

I am not angry with anyone.
I think its selfish to have a "live and let live" attitude when so many people are unhappy, lost and spiritually dying.
I am glad someone cared enough about me to show me where I was going wrong. I shudder to think where I would be today if they hadn't.

Because many religious people are self righteous and feel that they have the authority to control people's lives.

Perhaps it is because you ask them antagonistic questions that put them on the defense...
just a thought...
You can't take what the sloppy people say on a bad day and run with it... there are still some good Christians out there and I would appreciate you helping me to welcome them to express themselves.
(instead of encouraging them to dig themselves deeper into the self-loathing pit of fundamentalism)
No one ever truly conquers by dividing.
The Bible is a living book... what will the next translation read like? That depends on what is in their hearts.

I believe this Scornful behaviour represents the unrest all over the World not just among Christians but everyone.

I don't know ^*^@##$.....just, kidding....I don't think it's just Christians....there are a lot of "trolls" here who just want to stir things up and some people get pretty heated about their views from all "religions" or other personal beliefs.
Peace, Love, and Blessings
