NOTE: By no means does this apply to most Christians on here, most people are willing to discuss things open-mindedly.
But about 5-10% of the answers you see on here, from self-claimed religious people, are really aggressive. This is found more on the more controversial questions, but I've read replies such as:
"You should die"
"Go to hell"
"I wish I were there, I'd kill you" etc. etc!!
Everyone's seen examples of this from time to time.
Why is there this odd minority of people, who claim to be christ-like in their actions and beliefs, that act like this?

You know, If you really pay attention to this forum then you will see that this does not just come from the 5-10% of christians alone, but from every walk of faith or lack of one

Even Jesus warned those who " took no note"
(Matthew 24:36-39) “Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father. 37 For just as the days of Noah were, so the presence of the Son of man will be. 38 For as they were in those days before the flood, eating and drinking, men marrying and women being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark; 39 and they took no note until the flood came and swept them all away, so the presence of the Son of man will be.

for one i provide my solutions immediately and how God spoke the certainty. whilst it consists of being Christ like human beings cut back to rubble I even have made my proportion of blunders being a Christian and that i'm sorry yet sometime human beings would desire to be stated out marvelous and to the component and if not something is declared as a Christian God will cope with us and we are able to would desire to respond to why we did not permit the human beings comprehend the certainty. so do not take it to heart or get offended hear and consider the bible while you evaluate that's subject-loose education earlier Leaving Earth be blessed and love people who harm you.

Very simple...
Those people are not Christ-like and therefore are not Christians. It's like me claiming to be living in California when I in fact live in Mississippi. People make lots of claims that aren't true.

Unfortunately people get very defensive and dont have enough spiritual maturity (or perhaps their not really christian) to give tactful answers. Sadly his makes the rest of us look bad but maybe they will learn. God Bless

All people claiming to be Christians are not. But it is sad when the follower of Christ really acts bad.

Because this 5 to 10% of people who respond like this aren't really Christians, just intolerant, judgmental bigots?

I tried to put forth calm answers the best of my knowledge but I stopped due to the vicious cycle.

I'm sure they would be mentally-ill,to be posting things like that. We sometimes get violent-sounding posts from atheists. Mental illness is not confined to the one group or the other.

You're assuming they are Christian because of their negative response to a question. Bad assumption. Who knows what they believe.
