Fundamentalism: A usually religious movement or point of view characterized by a return to fundamental principles, by rigid adherence to those principles, and often by intolerance of other views and opposition to secularism.

Lucid Freedom, I don't have anything against Christianity at all, but I extremely dislike Bible-fundamentalists' attitude towards other people. and I never said I am an atheist. you just assume because I question Bible-fundamentalists.

Christianity is a faith based religion; not a reason based religion. I understand for nontheists, this is a near impossible concept. What is...just is.
Its ok with me that I have faith; why is not ok that I do? To answer your question specifically, many people will disagree on something, always. This is the same within any belief system and even perceptions of colors, tastes, art, etc. Gods peace to you
EDIT: Tango, your posts always target fundamentalist Christians, yet you are eternally displaying evidence of the very thing you dont like about us. You say we are intolerant, I say you are intolerant. I dont post questions over and over again debasing atheists for their views. Why should I? More importantly, why should you?
EDIT2: No Tango, I assume because your reference to them be anti-secular. Have I incorrectly assumed what secular means? I thought it meant being free from religion (thats what the dictionary says anyways)

they receive money for that cause tithing was removed in the bible and they still insist we have to give them 10% of our salary and was Removed in Ephesians 2:15.

I wouls like to respon to this but I need to know what your definition of fudamentalist is? Where do you see the issues in their positions and in defining a true believer. If you respond I will do my best to reply in truth and candor.

I'd answer you but you've already insulted me by saying I share a common ancestor with an ape.

Christian = Follower of Christ
We are all human, we make mistakes, we sin... hate, it is human nature. We want to deliver the message from God to people, because we are all condemed to Hell. Yes Hell, as horrible as it may sound, my sin and all of our sins are going to send us to Hell. But just as one man sinned and corrupted the entire world, God has sent one man, Jesus, to deliver us from our convictions, and deliver us from Hell.

Clearly you are trying to make a point. I just don't get the point you are trying to make. Are you Christian? If not, then what is your purpose?
