Why can't people be humble about their beliefs?

Question

I mean everyone. Mostly Christians and atheists though. I'm not crazy about the high level of thick-headedness that exists among certain people. Why can't everyone just live together as humans, and just believe what we believe in, and keep it to ourselves??? ... None of us know what happens when we die, or exactly where we came from, and since we don't know, why can't we just leave it alone and focus on living life???

My dad's Jewish, my mother and i are Catholic. I'm very open when it comes to spirituality, religion, etc. I don't understand why people try to change eachother... don't we all have a part in the world???

Answer 1

I agree. People can't be humble because they want to convert each other --- and they want to prove they're right. And they won't just shut up about it. Everytime I come on here all I see is Christian Vs. Atheist battle number 102938893... We never really hear much from other religions because all these jerks flood the board with their brainwashing messages. It's sad.

Answer 2

The Entity that knows what happens when we die is God; and He warns man to repent and be restored to the Book of Life before they die, because if they do not, they will die in an inverted state and remain inverted forever, and be cast into the lake of fire that was prepared for Satan and all inverted angels because they are eternal and cannot be reverted.

To ignore this reality is naive because you are eternal and death is inevitable.

God is not willing that any man would perish but that ALL would come to repentence. For God sent not His Son into the world to CONDEMN the world, but that the world through His Son might be saved.

The fact that Jesus voluntarily sacrificed His life on the cross to shed His blood for our sins and rise again from the dead demonstrates the seriousness of the reality of the lake of fire that He KNOWS exists - because He created it.

If you think you can live your life and ignore the reality of God, you are in for a rude awakening after you die, because if you are not restored to the Book of Life, it will be impossible for you to be restored to God beyond death.

This is no joke.

It is reality.

Answer 3

I have heard that some do know the things you claim that none of us know. And some that claim to know also say to leave it alone and just focus on living life.

Answer 4

NY, this is a question and answer forum. People ask questions and others answer. People will naturally disagree about things.

One can disagree without being rude. That would be a pleasant change from alot of posts on this site, I would agree.

Answer 5

Christians tell people the truth because we love them. We do not want people to go to hell. If we just leave people alone we will have to answer to God on judgement day. Do I obey God or man? Check out this site for the truth http://www.needanewstart.com

Answer 6

Christ said spread the good news. humbleness is something you have if you love Him anyway. We should tell the whole world of what He's done for us. we want our fellow people to go to heaven too.

Answer 7

While faith is integral to living one's life, all faith is a gift. We should be humble. Grace

Thank you for the question. It's a good one.

Answer 8

I do keep my atheism to my self. Out in the real world. Its those flag waving Christians that shout it out all over that's a real problem.

Answer 9

I would probably be less upset if it weren't for things like this....
