Saying by mouth that you believe in God or Christ does not necessarily make you a believer, just as saying that I am an atheist doesn't make me one. We have a heart inside and that speaks often what we don't speak by our mouths.
Not hurting any body's sentiments is good, but is a different thing than going into the right course. As human beings, we have limitations of actions and despite our best intentions, it may not be possible for us to always do what we consider as good. In fact some times we may even be doing the negative of what our intention by heart was actually.
When we start moving on the path of 'Truth', we only can do good. At present. we all are theists and atheists at the same time! What we claim ourselves to be, is not what we actually are.

I don't think it's possible for a human being to live a life without hurting anyone. But it's definately possible to be a good and caring person regardless of anyones faith.

No because we are all sinners and our actions will always hurt someone, ourselves, or God, which deserves death and eternal sepatation from God, which is Hell. But don't worry, Jesus paid the price of our sins by dying in our place. All we have to do is turn from our sins and receive Jesus as our Lord.

Everyone will hurt others at some point, Christian or non-Christian. As for living a good life that is beneficial to others and, as a rule, doesn't hurt others - millions of people do it everyday without being Christian.
Morals and ethics aren't exclusive to Christianity.

ok..the word of GOD said..JESUS is the way to HEAVEN..period. NOW christians need to change the ways of communication..sin bring death, diseases.poverty, ect..period.that is facts.
you or whoever has the right to SIN. yet, not the right to change laws to OK it..which had happen..that sodomy is now legal..which is illogical anyway..body parts wasn't made for that, so it's unholy..so they are inviting a demon or so..in the mess of it..period.
JESUS blood pays for them sins..2000 years ago.
HE is the way out as well demonic or bodily deliverance of the habit of it.
folks of christianity don't get this..we are UNDER GRACE..not under "THE LAW". yet violate the LOVE LAWS as your second question point too..is violating GOD's command to each other in Christ. now to sinners, other non christians..the rules of GOD still say..RESPECT others.
if they want to pervert.so be it..if they want unity.so be it..yet.no legal document other than..have a will.for possesion of decease aid/hiv victim..or whatever..but marriage? no..there is a curse involve here..when sin become LEGAL. hordes of demonic forces enter a nation..and destroy a nation. atheism destroy russia..anti god..is a poverish nation like africa of false god..demonic this and that.ect.
love and respect is right thing to do.
but if you're voicing laws to change for sinfulness legalness..no..we stand there and say..NO.
respect the sinner is a good thing.
for GOD love to you..will convert you and heal you..delver you..and bless you $$ too.
you have the right to sin, and hte crime to GOD or to thelawof the land is onto you..not us. and again.
if christian violate your respect as a person, that isn't good before GOD..yet..GOD is often time..speaking to you..like i am doing now..HE LOVES YOU and desire prosperity of your spirt soul and body as well finances too.a.nd LONG LIFE..be given to you..but..we all have to abandon sin that kills us..so that we may have LIFE
and have it in abundant.
now if your message was more rude, my message would be matcing to the rudness..but since your message was kind..I give back kindness.

Yes, it is possible, but the BIGGER question is where you will spend ETERNITY. Somehow people have been deceived into believing that the " here and now" is more important than the hereafter. That's a lie from the pit of hell.
Apart from Jesus Christ, you will spend ETERNITY in Hell, no matter how "good" your (brief) life on earth was.
