Is it -so- hard to recruit christians they have to bag the young of others when the parents aren't looking?

Question

I'm grading the answers to questions I asked back when a ten-year-old child was being recruited by self-proclaimed "christians".

I can't help but wonder just how difficult it is for christians to recruit others that they can't wait for a child so young to grow up and become an adult before they try preaching to her.

And to do it behind her parents' backs ...

Now I'd like to believe real Christians wouldn't do that.

But if it were their ten-year-old child who had wandered on here asking about Satanic cults, would they be pleased if the Satanists started encouraging their child into private chat rooms?

(o.O)

Obviously it doesn't occur to them to treat other people's children the way they'd want their children treated.

Why would any so-called christian feel it is their duty or right to teach a ten-year-old to disrespect and distrust the child's parents?

Do christians not have enough trouble without trying to start a war with the parents of other faiths now?

Answer 1

They're just like predators in the wild. They go after the young, old, weak and slow in the herd.
That's why they focus so much attention on prisons, recovery programs, youth programs, poor neighborhoods, poverty-stricken third-world countries, etc. Paths of least resistance.
It's deplorable.

Answer 2

Hello again!
I believe that you are right in that it is wrong to teach a child to disrespect parents. I believe if I were in a position to teach a child about Christ, I would first talk to the parents. The Bible say to "Honor you mother and father."
However, I know that Christians feel drawn to teach children because of Matthew 9:14.
Another thing that you must consider, is that a staple in Christianity is the belief that everyone has the right to know about Christ, and those who don't believe are condemned. The desire to not see a child grow up and be condemned many times can override the knowlege that teaching the child will cause strife at home.
Jesus himself said "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn 'a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law,' a man's enemies will be the members of his own household."
Knowing this, Christians feel slightly justified in teaching a child about Christ despite a parents lack of approval.

You asked why...and I think these are the basic reasons.

Answer 3

What these so called "Christians" are doing is wrong. Although that won't stop them from doing it because children will believe anything to be accepted and adults will question. If this child is yours just tell her she has the right to choose her own religion but she'll have to wait until she's an adult and don't allow her to associate with these people.

I came across a pretty disturbing set of questions yesterday that took CC almost 15 hours to delete. Obviously, someone was napping on the job.

Answer 5

their cockamamie religion tells them to recruit. They don't need more, they f*** and reproduce like bunnies. God's order!

I tried a reverse approach question with them, telling them I was a Pagawitchian (I thought this was OBVIOUS!) and that my religion required me to recruit Christians and others to my faith, and why oh why did they keep rejecting my entreaties, when it was my religious duty to recruit!!!

Some actually got it. Most didn't

Answer 6

You are so right,and have you noticed how few expressions of regret have been posted,never mind apologies by these sad desperate people?Perhaps they are so all-consumed with their project to even realise when they do something so blatantly wrong.

Answer 7

You are obviously right. funny how people change their mind when the tables are turned.
