The problem with Christianity has never been a problem with Christ, but rather the problem with Christianity is Christians.

As a man, Jesus Christ worked an average man's job that his dad taught him. He made sure to always watch out for his mom, and he chose to surround himself with friends that were the salt of the earth type guys. He was never really big on proceedure or the social nicities of the day, but was always glad to share what he had and to extend a helping hand in act or word to the people that crossed his path.
How could anyone not like a guy like that?
(and I didn't even mention his desire to help everyone come to God or his act of sacrifice)
As to the philosophy of "Christianity", well you have to remember that it is just that: a philosophy. It's man's attempt at understanding something that is much bigger than we can truly grasp and because men have failings, the practice of the philosophy will too. You just have to keep working on it.

Yes. I have no problems with what Jesus is supposed to have taught. I read the Bible as a girl, and I don't disagree with most of what he said--what was said in the Old Testament is another story!--but I think that he is not listened to by Christians, except when what he said is something that they like to hear, and hasn't been for millenia. He did not advocate killing, yet how many have been killed in his name simply because they chose not to believe in him? It's sickening.

I don't mind Judeo-Christianity as mythology. Certainly it's much more violent than say the Greek myths and less sexual than most ancient myths, but it would be harmless if people treated it like what it is - mythology.
That being said, Judeo-Christian-Islamicism is a very dangerous cult that has held back human development for the last 3000 years.

I would say with the religious Christians it seems they finding it's there job "to save people" by using scare tactics, telling people they are and what they are doing is wrong and other BS that doesn't help when it comes to converting others. I have yet to find the case with spiritual ones.

Then they should not forfeit their souls for this reason,but rather seek God though Jesus Christ will all of their being,and show the world how real Christians should live...we would welcome this.

It is reasonable. Some Christians are so over the top that they don't act very charitable.
