Christians, which group is more threatening to you? Muslims or Atheists?

Question

Muslims and Atheists....its a good thing we have to be one or the other and cannot be both, eh? if atheist Muslims could exist somehow...would that bring about another round of crusades?

Answer 1

muslims would like to see the end of christianity. but there is no chance of that. (christianity will outlive islam by several centuries).

atheists could care less about christianity. christianity poses no threat to atheism. we have made steady progress against people of faith for six thousand years already. we shall continue to do so.

so christians fear islam. but they need not (its threat is trivial).

christians are unable to fear atheism (since they cannot understand it). but in time they will inevitably be subsumed by it.

(i suppose i should explain 'subsumed' for the christians - but i don't feel like it).

Answer 2

Neither! The biggest threat to Christians is SOME small but radical Christian groups. I will name Church of Jesus Christ -Christian (a neo nazi, skinhead type church) and Landmark Church (the ones attending veteran funerals and saying they got what they deserved because they were gay, doing similar at abortion clinics and hospitals, preaching about homosexuality and adultry at schools saying the Trade Center victims got what they deserved because they were gay) Well, you get the idea. All other real Christians should launch group action lawsuits against these groups for defamation and injury to true Christian organizations.
Yeah these are far more dangerous than athiests, muslims, Buddhists, Hindis, Taoists, Norse, Greek, Pagan, Animists and any other religion.
Add one more to that threat list: Satanic Church began by Antone LeVey in San Francisco.

Answer 3

No one can be threatening to me, certainly not with a viewpoint or belief. I live as I live and have no fear of dying.

I think we should stop viewing people as threats because of a stereotype. As long as we polarize we incite more problems.

Christ said to love even your enemies. This is my approach.

Because someone believes in a different faith or none at all has little consequence. I will believe as I do and respect that others may not believe as I do. When I meet them, I'll act as the good Samaritan and treat them with loving (agape) kindness.

If anyone threatens my life, the life of my family or my freedom, I'll respond to the threat however, I won't become angry.

There are good and bad examples from any doctrine. People ultimately are people. The threat if there is one comes from a person who acts from selfishness or fear and deliberately acts out on it in a violent or oppressive way. This is a reflection of character far more than a reflection of religion or doctrine.

Answer 4

The only way you'd get another crusades is if the Muslims started invading Christian lands and slaughtering Christians on a genocidal scale just like they did the first time.

By the time of the Crusades (when the Europeans began fighting back), Muslims had conquered two-thirds of the Christian world by the sword, from Spain to Syria, and across North Africa. The Arab slave-trading routes would stay open for another 1300 years, until pressure from Christian-based countries forced Islamic nations to declare the practice illegal (in theory).

Answer 5

Muslims. I know atheists aren't hell bent on killing in the name of...oh, I don't know, science...and they really appreciate freedom too. I bet atheists actually like it when a woman shows her hair and maybe a little leg. I doubt a group of them would prevent "uncovered" girls from leaving a burning building. Anyway, islam is anti-freedom and democracy and atheists are not.

God Bless.

Answer 6

i could say that atheists are threatened by using the Christians, no longer any incorrect way around. None of those communities are as enthusiastic approximately Christians as atheists are. all of them define themselves by using what they suspect. Atheists define themselves by using what they reject. recently the atheists are extra evangelical than maximum Christians. Are you particular that atheists have not any delusions in any respect? i'm able to tutor that atheists are among the main deluded, boastful, and irrational human beings in the international.

Answer 7

Neither group threatens me. My Faith is in the Lord Jesus Christ. In case you don't know it, we have already won. The Bible says that one day, every knee will bow and every tongue will proclaim Him Lord ( even atheist and muslims ). The Bible also says that no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against me will fall, for my Righteousness is of the Lord. Non- Christians are non- threats.

Answer 8

Atheists aren't threatening to me at all. I have plenty of atheist friends, and get along well with them. I have Muslim friends, too, and they don't threaten me in any way. However, fanaticism of any sort, whether Muslim, Christian, or from any other source, does scare me. Extremism is a threat to all of humanity.

Answer 9

Neither is a threat to me.. They only hurt themselves. I have the armor of God on and can`t be threatened by worldly things.. EVERY knee shall bow.. There is NOTHING in the world that can stand against our Father.. Though they do try, they always fail.. Pssssst. I read the end of the book. We win.. Praise the Lord.. {:-)
