Why do Christians so easily unite and non-Christians have a problem with it?( Yeah, could be said with the shoe on the other foot)
You aren't saying anything new.Christians stand for unity and pray daily for this.A true Christian doesn't leave room in his/heart for animosity and if so it should be repented about.
It's enough us sharing our faith, not jumping on any bandwagon with additional letters CC?
Christian simply means follower of Christ and that is sufficient.
The problem yet again is generalisation.
There are warm, caring non-Christians out there as well as Christians.
So what wre you saying here?That Christians are less human simply because they have faith.?

A fun idea at first glance, but on second thought, the last thing that Christians want to mimic is atheists, so I say no to imitating their "style." Only a hollow message needs a gimmick. Maybe they band together for just that reason - emptiness.
Christian unity is practically speaking impossible at this point. The denominations are entrenched in their positions. That wouldn't be so bad, but for the fact that each one appears to believe that without their saving dogma, you are in apostasy. With hardened positions like that, unity is impossible.

We do not need to band together when we are already brothers and sisters in Christ. Why stoop to using their tactics? What we can do is refuse to answer the clearly stupid questions designed to provoke us-(If god is everywhere, does that mean god is hydrogen?)
Post instead our objections rather then report the question-And refrain from attacking one another on the minor issues of celebrating Christmas for example-(WHY don't "True Jesus" believers celebrate Christmas as other christians?").
Many of the atheist questions end up in the "Vote for best answer" area so go there and vote!

Because like they say "birds of the same feather flock together". Satan is satan, there are no different verieties of evil, evil is evil .Non Christians are the children of the devil and of course they have the same spirit. Christians cannot get along , because there are too many Christians who think that they are Christians , but they don't have the Spirit of God and so they clash with our spirit. The bible says "how can two walk together , unless they agree?"

I don't need letters after my name, though I appreciate the idea. Every person on here who accepts Jesus Christ as personal lord and saviour is my brother or sister in Christ. And many of those that don't are lost brothers or sisters, and I would rejoice to welcome them to the family.
What you say is true. Christians must be united. Otherwise we harm the cause we hold most precious.

Can you tell who your brothers and sisters are by the way they answer questions? I know that I can and I know that I am not alone on this board, because I here others share the truth about Christ. I have never felt the need to identify myself with a title... I'll let the message I send do that for me.

This atheist isn't in the AM. I've been in the EAC for over seven years now, since it was defined by a fundie Christian in evolution chat.
We're still working on secret hand signals.

Well, what we have to do is get our minds off of ourselves and be focused on the Lord and His interest in other people.
This is a 'me' oriented society with what we want, think, and feel, at the top of our priority lists. But Jesus wants us to lay down our lives for Him and for one another.

True Christians are loving an have no problem uniting. It is the false ones you have issues with.
