Ha Ha, nice question.   It is interesting how we consider a lot actions done in biblical stories to be rational at the time, but if it was now we would consider these people lunatics.

Fair enough, now are you going to post all the acts of evil perpetrated in the name of Christianity.  See 34 AD to Present.\n\nNote: Big Pen, the answer was meant to be sarcastic, however, Christianity still has much to answer for.

It is obvious to me that the evil in the world does not come from following the teachings in the Bible, but come from ignoring those teachings.  If people loved one another, treated one another as they would like to be be treated, were kind and helpful and did not take advantage of one another, the world would be a wonderful place.  That is the Bible teaching.  Where the people live the commandments of God there is peace and harmony.  This is the God I believe in, love, and will follow.  Satan is the one who spreads dissent, hate, discord, war, and suffering.  Satan wants you to not believe in the Bible.  There is no doubt in my mind who the good guy is, and who is the evil one.

Hitler was NOT a Christian.  There are many who claim to be yet know nothing of the Love of Jesus.

my answer is based on bible, so sorry if you think the bible's a fake.\n\nbut, the bible teaches that all people are inherently evil.  i think the only good people do is solely out of the grace of god.

Charles Manson, Hitler, John Kerry, these people are no more sinners than anyone else.\n\nAll have sinned and come short of the glory of God.\n\nIf God takes Kerry to heaven, and not Ghandi, it is not for us, His creation, to question.

Great question...these people who blame aren't rational Christians and their understanding of the relationship between God and man is far below what yours is...why?  Maybe they haven't read the Bible as many "Christians" haven't.  Maybe they are hateful...Jesus himself said that we need to question things those who claim to come in his name tell us...that there are "antiChrists" all over the place and I'm sure he wasn't talking about 666, Damion and a big horned red devil, he was talking about people who use his name to convince people to do what he never told us to do...he also said a lot of people will be surprised at their Judgement because they think they are doing what God wants but they are just doing their own thing...

christians had slaves so what is your point people are people with different religions and nationalities and historically as well as currently no one is any better or evil then the next we are all sinners but we do not have to choose to carry on and harbor hate as individuals

Paul was a person too...and people are flawed.  Judah was only one brother of 11 who sold his youngest brother to slave traders and Jesus came from his line.  It isn't our job to judge other people or allow them to alter our faith in God.  I think that if it were found that he plead guilty because he was then he was a human doing better than most humans because most wouldn't plead guilty...they would lie and try to cover up what they did.  The key to this question is the idea of repentance...we should focus on his repentance and turning from sin rather than the sin.  Being a man of God doesn't make him exempt from the human tendancy to sin...that's the name of the game when you have true faith...the temptation doesn't go away, it's how you deal with it.

Or what about the tribes in South America who haven't had contact with any outsider. They've never even heard of Jesus. What about them? Are they going to hell? Probably not. That's not really fair is it? Plus, isn't God is all-forgiving and all-loving and all that jazz? Why would he punish the innocent?

Is the evil brothers/ sisters of the devil. You are waisting your breath, they're tung tied by the devil. Muhammed (PBUH) is the great role model for life, i know that i wished they at least leave him alone. \nEvery hateful of non muslim ppl are saying that he married a 6 years old girl and he did it for lust, that he  raped some numbers of women (Na oju Bil la he min jalika). But the ignorance ppl are either making up stories(laying to spread hate) or getting false information.\nI think they just hate the idea of some one being better than them.\nLook around, they have killed all the great Ppl who spoke out like Martin Luther King, Freedeg Dougles, Muhammed Ali.

Well throught the years the self-righteous have always tried to beat up on people that don't have their beliefs... And say well god said to do it... If there is a god I picture him being one of love not one who says "you are different" or "I hate the fags" you know in the bible it says you should keep slaves... I bet a certain group in very happy that their were good people who said no it's not ok to have slaves. Religion is evil... in the wrong peoples hand like Hitler, Bush Jr.

Sure, the same could be said for Jesus, but probably not. Joseph Smith was a simply con artist and he didn't live in the desert, mostly Illinois before he got killed by an angry mob.\n\nPeople like Jesus and Muhammed back in their time were a dime a dozen, it's just history chose to remember those two.

Yes, too many Christians today resemble those hypocrites. They have all these little traditions and clicks instead of spreading love and goodwill like Jesus did. That’s why I stay away from Church and those places. Those people scare me...They don't know the real GOD, they just use Gods word to judge others. Think about this...Hitler believed that the bible justified what he did. Really...Judgment is not to be done by us.

perhaps not in the way the modern Christians think. however, there were several Prophets of THE PEOPLE who talked to various tribes of THE PEOPLE talking about the same basic concepts JESUS did. such as the PEACE-BRINGER who talked to the Five Civilized Tribes and Hiawatha ( who actually existed ).

ok. in the bible God mainly choose the bad boys to do his work. God choose these people becuase first off they could better understand the sins of others. Second of all the work of God was not easy he needed hardened characters to toughen things out and get the job done.\nthird of all the bad boys could serve as an example onto others. What a powerfull tool to have a sinner made whole and then to teach the love and forgiveness of the bible.\n\nas a reverand i find it touching when an x-felon or addict turns his life around and teaches about the saving grace of christ!
