I'm Christian also-more of a Peter I suppose
Don't see why one can't defend their own belief against what I call 'a brood of vipers' you know what I mean

Nemesis is defending what I believe in pointing a finger?
Language is quite a good tool to put across a point-yes it works both ways
There are one or two 'Christians' on here who vilify the Catholic Church and that is really what I am trying to say

Courtney-that is a lovely gentle answer
Sorry but I do get annoyed when these 'Trolls' with their provacative answers go on

Know how you feel Adam-feel the same
Have had first hand experience and they won't win any converts their way either.

I'm sorry you've had bad experiences with Christians. Please know that Christians do not accurately reflect the God we believe in--and we owe the world an apology for that. Christ lived humbly, never requiring people to follow Him. Those who loved Him chose to follow Him, seeing that He was truly God. Please forgive us, as Christians, for being pushy and haughty. It is un-Christlike.

the empiror asoka had wrote on pillars throughout his kingdom the rights and privilages of the people and the duties he would try to preform one of these rock edicts as they are know it says A man must not do reverence to his own sect or disparage that of another sect without reason. Deprecation should be for specific reason only, because the sects of other people all deserve reverence for one reason or another. By thus acting, a man exalts his own sect, and at the same time does services to the sects of other people. By acting contrariwise, a man hurts his own sect and does disservice to the sects of other people. Rock Edict XII

Some people get angry when faced with the History of certain enties. Others are politicizing open prayer. Everybody is entitled to their opinions after they search for facts, not biased, uniformed information.

the first answer is quite correct. the first thing to do before pointing a finger is answering the question Why?

I prefer to sharply correct them and then pray for them, but whatever method makes you feel better and glorifies the Lord.

Yeah, it makes you want to be more like them, doesn't it?
If that's how a Believer acts, I'll stay a Non Believer.
