a lot of the questions go something like this "if god is so perfect..." or "why do christians..." and after the why do christians it says something wrong. im christian and proud.

people tend to criticize things that they dont understand, so understandably christianity and god will fall under this.  Everybody's going to have their own view and own ideas about whether or not god does exist, whether it be for or against.  While other's just like to cause trouble.

I love how you ask a legit question about the Christian God and so many Christians can't even give you a serious answer.

I can't tell you exactly why that is. I am a Christian, and when I say Christian I mean I am a born again believer in Christ, and I see it in my church a lot. I don't think i do it tho. Most of us are taught to deffend our religion. I guess some of us just take it too far. Others just don't know how to handle it. If you want to ask some questions I would like to answer them. I don't get deffensive real easily like a lot of others do. I have a lot of friends that have different beliefs than me so I'm used to being around different religions and lifestyles. But like I said if you have questions and want answers I can't promise u that I would know all of them but I could answer as many as possible from a biblical standpoint.

Well put. I often get trapped into snide comments.\n\nI need to defend the faith, but in a loving way. Thank you.

I think there are a few things going on here.  Some of these people, indeed maybe all, deep down are haunted by the idea maybe there IS  a God they will be responsible to and are bitter about the whole thing and want to badger us.  Some of them want to expose the woeful lack of knowledge many Christians have to defend their faith (which is very logical and sensible and many extremely intelligent people embrace it)  We must remember, the cross is an offense to people.  Those of the world killed Christ and the world will always hate us.  These people will hate our uninformed anwers and they will hate our informed will reasoned answers.  They are a waste of time.  I believe this is what Jesus referred to when He said not to cast your pearls before swine.  Our time is too short.  Save time for the true seekers.  They are not too hard to find.  Also, study to show thyself approved so you can give a good defense for our faith, not just scripture but how it makes sense in our world and state of existence as a whole.

Sweetie, i tell you, that upsets me too!!! It's upsetting, I put a question, where i put"Christians" only. People got offended, im not a mean person, it was just a question for followers of God. \n\nWhatever! LONG LIVE GOD!

There is a lot of good points made. It's interesting how 10 people can read 1 thing and get 11 different opinions.\n When a person tells someone they aren't Christian, look how you responded.  hahahahahhaah  I about choke.  hahahahahahhaha.\n I love the little goody 2 shoes.  I love them, They my favorite, at lunch time.\n\n Hey....The student loans are good. Just send'm a I.O.U.  they will understand.  if not. Go to Yahoo, and REPORT them.  hahahaha\n\n\n\nHave a great week.\n\n.

Its just things are. Many questions are really difficult to answer even the answer seems logical but it aint correct.

God is a big question in a lot of people's minds.  If they're searching for answers, let them search.

I've answered several religious questions tonight.  I am guilty of your charge on some of those answers.  In one answer I got completely off topic.  I beg your pardon if mine was one you are referring to.

I'm totally fine with religion in the Religion & Spirituality section. But every day I see people in the Science & Mathematics section trying to answer questions with God. Keep it in the category.

I think your questions are valid. Unfortunately, christians don't like questioning their religion so your questions will be deleted again because they're afraid.\n\nBeing non-christian (I grew up catholic), I have to answer both those questions with "No".\n\nBut chances are that the christians here will find fault in those questions and report you.\n\nSad, isn't it? That they should have so little confidence in their own religion that they report someone that's asking valid questions.

An excellent list. And there isn't a christian that can deny the utter stupidity of the bible when presented with these outright contradictions.\nI mean, how can a "perfect" being's manifesto be so chock full of mistakes?

People get enthusiastic about talking about their faith, or talking about an issue that seems to involve their set of beliefs. It just so happens God is a hot topic, espeically on these boards. Part of the problem may be (and i have to admit i dont know what your questions were) no feels they know enough to answer your questions. Much like most people on here id imagine, i try and answer questions that i think i can have some benefit to the asker. If your questions were either too specific or about an area no one felt comfortable answering (other than the wiki paste) then that might be why.

I think  lot of people post those questions because they bring in the most responses, and sometimes it's fun to instigate a fight. Definitely agree with you on it being wrong and immature, though.

I agree fully.\n\nPeople should be entitled to their beliefs--whatever they may be--and no one should put another down for believing something they do not agree with.\n\nI don't believe in Christianity, but I am not about to go dissing a bunch of Christians or make such judgemental posts.\n\nThis is a place to ask questions, not criticize. It seems wrong to me to ask a question with a judgement in it. Anyone who disagrees is automatically wrong in the asker's eyes.\n\nGood question on your part.

wow he like to ask a lot of religious questions.  Of course being a pastor and all.. But may be he is not.  he could be a criminal or somethin... who knows... He probably thought that his old icon was not flashy enough.
