Why would any Christian be fool enough to listen to what a atheist had to say about Christianity?

Answer 1

Listening is a good thing and not foolish at all. I understand what you mean, at least I think I do, but when you refuse to listen to someone you loose their respect! It takes a lot of courage to stand up for your beliefs--what ever they are--and I'm sure it is easier for you to refuse to hear someone elses opinion. But I would rather listen, communicate and earn the respect of others who believe differently than I do. Maybe I could make a friend in the process. And that would be a good thing too.

Answer 2

Since it is the duty of all Christians to spread the word, then it is inevitably the case that you will speak to non-believers for that is why you have been directed to go out to spread the word to everyone, that would obviously put you face to face with non-believers.

To do otherwise is to admit failure and would be an abandonment of the command to help the rest of the world achieve salvation.

It is impossible to communicate with others without listening to what they have to say, thus you would not only be a fool not to listen but you would be guilty of dereliction of duty.

And I think that is what Jesus would say.

Answer 3

I like the fact that you put Christian and fool in the same sentence. You must be an Atheist.

Answer 4

One prominent Christian scholar said that atheists served a good purpose in keeping Christians honest. Try listening to atheists. You can learn something. Or perhaps that's what your're afraid of.

Answer 5

I was thinking (is not very usual)Jesus creates all things cause he is God, and the last creation was humans then the Hell was created before Adam, then he creates a place to torture people before they sin, and he knew that they will sin, so he decided to create before the creation of humans a horrible place to torture us, he put all the fire 100,000 degrees and the brimstone also wow!!

according to the bible Satan rebels in the garden of Edem (after the creation of hell) read Ezekiel 28:11 and you will see he was as a guardian in Edem and the he becomes evil only 6000 years ago after the creation fo Adam and Eve and of course hell.
It is incredible but that is what christianity are spreading and we even realize that we are doing it!!!! all this crap that I already say it is exactly what christianity has been teaching as a God of love, it is no strange that Jesus will reject the majority of us (Christians) according to Matthew 7:21-23 and also why atheist think we are stupids.

Answer 6

Because they like to ask questions. Why would the thoughts of a atheist be problematic? Besides some help with basic grammar (an atheist) they could get help in waging their spiritual war with satan if they knew what the other side was thinking.

Answer 7

Because most atheists know more about Christianity than most Christians.

Answer 8

You cant. Atheist are just as crazy as christians you cant prove there is a god but you cant prove there isnt one.(well except for thousands of years of scientist disproving the notion that a magical man in the sky created the Earth)

Answer 9

Because it is part of loving one another that we hear each other out. Why would anyone limit hearing only the same thinking people. That can get really boring. Jesus hanged out with tax collectors, lepers and poor = everyone who needed Him. Did all people change their lives around when Jesus spent time with them? NO. But His time was not wasted and He was not a fool.

Answer 10

I listen to show I care, a very Christian thing to do. I also listen to share, another Christian thing to do.
