You betcha sweetie...same reason (among many) I've been put off by Christianity for years...only slightly more years than I've been a Christian myself! Hard pill for a Christian to swallow that not everyone who claims to follow Christ truly understands what that means. A little easier for me to accept that being a Christian doesn't mean you stop making stupid mistakes...I've sure made enough in my life.

I actually have better reason to not believe but it's a good example of the fact that most people here aren't asking question or wanting answers.
I started out giving direct honest answers and yet the same people ask the same soapbox pseudo-questions every day. "Why do monkeys still exist" "If you can't see wind why do atheists believe in it" "If atheists believe in nothing..." "Why are atheists in R&S...".
None of these people want an answer. I used to wonder why do people give sarcastic snarky answers. I get it now. Because those people are only going to read those answers that reflect their own opinion anyway so anything well thought out is a waste of time. "Pearls before closed minded swine"
I'm with you sarcastic answerers now. Screw it all. DRINK!!!

this is the reason i'm "placed off" (an exceedingly effective note for it) of Christianity: A conservative Lutheran team has reprimanded a Newtown, Conn., pastor for partaking in an interfaith vigil after the Sandy Hook bloodbath. The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod suggested the Rev. Rob Morris of Christ the King Lutheran Church inadvertently gave the effect he condoned joint worship by ability of providing the benediction at a Dec. 16 adventure with different non secular leaders for the worry-free college capturing victims. The church structure bars clergy from praying with representatives from different religions, which includes another Lutheran communities, for worry of giving the introduction that theological transformations about salvation and different doctrines are not substantial. The vigil blanketed Christian, Jewish, Muslim and Baha'i leaders. President Barack Obama and Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy attended. In a fact printed Feb. a million on a denominational blog, the Missouri Synod president, the Rev. Matthew Harrison, suggested Morris took "certain and commendable" steps to maintain away from violating the church's structure: Morris requested an fact before the shape that partaking clergy were no longer endorsing one yet another's perspectives, and he examine from Scripture. although, Harrison concluded that the shape change into joint worship because that different clergy wore their vestments and the vigil blanketed prayers and non secular readings. "there is on occasion a real stress between desirous to undergo witness to Christ and at the same time averting circumstances which will provide the effect that our transformations with appreciate to who God is, who Jesus is, how he deals with us and how we get to heaven, somewhat don't be counted contained eventually," Harrison wrote. i imagine this way of problem is disgusting! imagine! A memorial provider for 26 slaughtered human beings - 20 of them small toddlers - and they imagine this idea of no longer worshipping with different non secular is better substantial? what type of douchebag God do they worship besides?

It is amazing that sometimes us Christians forget that once we too were not part of the saved group. We Christians need to have a bit more compassion. The message and the people hearing are lost if we can't talk without hurting other people.

Because some "Christians" are actually being led by Satan... the king of hate. If they actually followed what the Bible says, they wouldn't be nasty like that. God is LOVE. It frustrates me, as a Christian, that some others claiming to be Christian give God a bad name. May I never bring shame on the name of God.

Religion does not always equate with Spirituality. There are deeply religious people out there who blow up clinics and fly planes into buildings. Judge people by their actions, not their words.
Just as there are Atheists who are real jackholes.

Sure. I know that. Anyone can call themselves a Christian, a Muslim, a Jew. Doesn't make it so. People like that are just trying to incite and offend.
