why are so many people into christianity?

these people were probably saved tremendously from their addictions or faults. they don't have room to compromise. our jobs as a Christian is to surround ourselves with other believers. It makes us stronger and harder to break. But there are other Christians who have the ability to communicate the GOod News about Jesus Christ in a way that doesn't shut nonbelievers out. Don't lose hope!

Yes, Christianity is the largest community of faith. There are more nations that claim Christianity as their faith than any others.

lets see, 80% of this country are christian so is the question, "why are christians not tolerant to other christians?"  It's a question that really cant be answered.  \n\nI think the problem is Christians seem to be confused about teaching theology on the tax payers dime.  It's not a question of tolerance, but a question of law.

I love Christians.I really love non-Christians,because I can tell them about my friend,JESUS CHRIST!My job as a CHRISTIAN is to spread the gospel about Jesus,how he is the son of God,died on the cross for me,and you,and rose on the third day to defeat Satan.I'm telling you it's gospel,and that's the gospel truth!God bless you REAL good!

You're right, real Christians are getting harder to find.  You can't really blame people for not wanting to be a Christian with some of the examples out there.\nThat said, be careful not to fall into the same trap yourself, and be tempted to believe that ALL people generalize christians:  a lot of folks are honestly looking for the truth and will hear you out.

I agree with you, I think 1/4 of America is christian and I frankly think it is odd that the most questions in this area are about christianity.  The only things that I can think of are:\n\n- Christians have the most questions\n- Christians are still very actively trying to convert folks and so are most vocal\n- maybe some Christians are so insecure that they need to constantly speak to other christians in order to keep their faith strong\n- perhaps our own most vocal christians here are so devoted to their religion that they can think of nothing else\n\nI am starting to get tired of the same questions over and over again, though, I can tell you.

Lets take it further. There is only one belief system in the world whose God humbled himself, came to earth, and suffered & died for his followers. And that is why Christianity stands apart from the rest and makes it so unique. See, the other gods demand, demand, demand. But Christianity's God loves and gives and blesses!

because many people need the Lord

Here's an even BETTER question...Why is it that through out mankind's history it's only been in the last 2000 years that people had the hope of being "saved" and why is it out of all the billions of people that have lived it's only the people that follow Jesus who will be "saved"...Since "God" sees all and knows all(according to people that "follow the bible") why did "God" just make a savior to appeal to only a tiny percent of the masses...If you look at is this way it seems "God" does not love everyone and is very discriminate and prejudice....

I dont know about numbers (of such converts), but I know that many people from other faiths (and world-views) are commiting their lives to Christ. \n\nE.g., see http://www.godsci.org/gs/chri/testimony/00.html\n\nCordially,\nJohn\nhttp://www.GodSci.org\n[God and Science]

A little over two billion, or about a third of the World's population today. Not sure about the stats for the U.S.\n\nBut from my vantage point, I'd consider only a small fraction of that number to be 'true' Christians... if you get my drift.\n\nPeace be with you.

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.

Most people don't think of the harm they induce on themselves, and believe that their way is right, and most of them don't even think about giving their life to Christ. Some of them want to be in the "in crowd" or they don't want to sacrifice the things of this world. But we as Christians have to be an example for them, to show them that Christ can have control over their life and they still can have good wholesome fun. And what peace he gives us. And indescribable blessings we receive. We must tell them that Jesus is on his way back SOON and we must be born again in Christ to gain eternal life in Heaven.

Nonsense.  Christianity, as a collective, is the world's largest religion.

Much of the christian world is in the dark about islam. Christianity is not a religion that accepts those who do not believe in the same religion. Too many people know too little about other religions, and than make ignorant statements about what they do not know.

I think that many people who claim some form of Christianity as their chosen religion are not terribly interested in living a truly christian life. I mean, religion is for many people an excuse, or a comfort blanky, or something to that effect, but is not a way of life, as it should be. People shouldn't only be Christains on sunday, or saturday, or whenever. It should be a part of the way you think, the decisions you make, and the goals we have in life. So in answer to your question, yes, I think that many of us as Christians have forgotten who we are and why we're here. That's probably one of the reasons that the world is in such bad shape.

Christians are very ignorant of other faiths.  I suppose because they're been raised to think that theirs is the only true faith and that everyone else needs to be converted to Christianity.\n\nIt's getting better though.
