Why do some people think that their god is right and mine is wrong? And hurt others to prove it?

Yes. That's not right.

For some, admitting they're wrong makes them feel inferior.  If they only understood that admitting when they're  wrong indicates strong personal character they may view it differently.\n\nSome people just like to be right all of the time.  Again, it's a personal problem.  Insecure?  Feeling of inferiority?  Only that person can honestly answer that.  However, if they never admit they're wrong it's not likely they'll explain why.

That's so funny.  I don't understand why people don't believe that you are god, shouldn't they just have faith that you are?  Why are they asking for proof from you?  They never needed proof before.

I agree with you. People get so angry and frustrated that others don't follow or don't believe the same. Live life to the full, what does it matter if you do or don't 'believe'. It's your own personal opinion, just respect others who choose not to feel the same way as you.

im kinda curious why you keep on saying "you" instead of "they". you are pretty quick to point the finger here when really, your doing the same thing you accuse these other people for doing.  what makes all of your labeling and judgement on these people ok, but their labeling and judgement not ok?  now dont get me wrong, i think it gets pretty annoying when some christians feels they are higher and mightier than everyone else and in turn, they are so eager to cast the first stone and call out everything they feel is wrong.  i am a christian and always find myself quite a bit embarrassed when other christians, or self-presumed christians embarrass the faith, like in the example you gave.\n\nthis is just on a side note, but im thinking you have had a fair share of encounters with believers about religious topics.  and im guessing they all turned from peaceful conversation into heated debate which only adds fuel to your fire on not getting along with christians and  you viewing them in a negative way.  (this may  not be true, dont worry, in a way im not even directing this towards you,  i just have a few atheist friends with this problem so i thought id share this idea in hopes that it might open someones eyes who reads  this)  so think of yourself here.  and look  back on a specific argument you had.  i can  almost garuntee that you were so  quick not to accept whatever the believer had to say, just because of the  pride  in which you hold in being an atheist.  this allows for negativity to come into play and inevitable frustration on both ends causing for harsh words and you not accepting christians even more than before.\n\nthe christian idea is to spread the word  of God and show people how great the lord's love is and how it can change your life and especially your death.  christians do not aim at upsetting people and making them feel bad by pointing out everything that they do wrong.  christians know the love of god and want to show that to everyone, so they try to show you what you are doing wrong in the eyes of god and they  are wanting to help you turn from that.  you may even be the nicest person ever; youre caring, considerate, and just an overall good person.  the mistake that people make who are like this is that they believe they will enter the gates of heaven just for their deeds.  it clearly  states in the bible that salvation and the ticket to heaven is through jesus christ, and jesus christ only.  it even says no man's deeds will give  him  permission into heaven.\n\ni  realize i  got a bit off  topic here and i apologize,  i guess i just got a little caried away.\n\nanyway, i just ask that you dont label all christians just because there are one or two quacks that youve run into.  things like the example you brought up is really just embarrassing and ridiculous.

The same reason people who say they believe in god without a doubt obsessively come up with an answer for every question. Because they are mostly trying to convince themselves.

It's because people think they are right and when someone questions their beliefs even a little it scares them.\n\nDiffering opinions should be seen as an opportunity.  They will either change you or support what you believe... they are not about anger and fear.

God isn't on anybody's side.  The question we should all be asking ourselves is "Am I on God's side?"  We are ALL wrong.  God is the one who is right.

To some point of your question, I agree. I don't like others attemping to force thier beliefs on me. But, just listen anyway.They mean well, but do not realize what they are doing. But from a standpoint of their beliefs, they are doing what they think is right. Just grin and bear it.

Are you doubting God? That's what those people do. They are put here from Satan to doubt your beliefs. Stand Firm!!

Are their beliefs actually hurting them ?  Or is it that their beliefs are causing them to rethink their lives and the changes that they are making are changing the dynamics of your relationship?  Is what they believe making them better people or not?  Obviously they believe very much in the bible and do not share your feelings in regard to the bible being a piece of fiction.  What in life are they missing out on?  Your question is very vague.  You can't judge someones beliefs based on your own.  We are all free to worship as we want.  Obviously they are happy serving God they way that they are or else they wouldn't be worshipping in that fashion.  You should be happy that they are happy!!!  Maybe you might want to get to know a little more about their beliefs in order to understand them better.

Why are you so p!ssed off, sounds to me that you are not very secure in what you believe. Usually that's the case when someone continues to say that they believe something they themselves know is ridiculous.  All I have to say is your system of beliefs is weak and unstable your flaired temper tells me that your actually do not believe what you say you believe and it\npisses  you off when someone challenges it. You do not know how to defend it so you throw a childish fit and call names.  Grow up, get a live and believe some thing you can believe in.  God is God and you aren't big enough to believe Him away. He is there whether you like it or not and He is unmovable and will still be hear when you are dead and buried and He will cause the grass to grow on your dead carcase while your soul continues to die in hell.\n\nBe Blessed though you do not believe in God, He believes in you and waits for you to acknowledge Him.

I think everyone worships something whether they believe in God or not.  Some people even worship the idea of not having a God because they have to tell everyone about it.  I do agree with your idea about weakness.  I think that people who are insecure about their beliefs tend to try to recruit people to believe the same thing so they don't feel alone.  Those who are secure about their own beliefs tend to keep quiet and go on with their lives.  They don't need to feel justified that their beliefs are okay since they have their own truth.

SOME PEOPLE HAVE FORGOTTEN THAT GOD'S JOB IS TAKEN AND PROCEED TO JUDGE OTHERS. THOSE SAME PEOPLE ALSO DON'T REALIZE THAT GOD DOESN'T MAKE MISTAKES...IF YOU TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT THE HATERS, YOU'LL SEE ALOT OF THEM ARE ONLY TRYING TO MAKE THEMSELVES SEEM MORE VALUABLE BY PUTTING OTHERS DOWN. DON'T LET IT BOTHER YOU SO MUCH. MOST OF THEM ARE IGNORANT AND YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT CUZ MOST OF IT IS GENETIC... LIKE FROM INBREEDING. JUST TREAT OTHERS WITH LOTS OF RUBBER LOVE AND SOONER OR LATER, IT'LL BOUNCE BACK TO YOU.

I would hate to think that you believe in such a cruel god that He would leave anyone here just because they chose the wrong faith in your eyes.  The god I believe in takes all souls regardless if they believe in Him or not.  He understands that people get confused while they are here and can be easily misled.  You should open your mind a little and consider the fact that if another group, not yours, is the "right" religion, you would want God to still include you in His kingdom.

I will be following this very closely, as this question is incredably nessisary to ask. Strange that is should be asked however, since we are all human beings. No one is less than anyone else. Why do we have these ideas that people can push others around or away because of ones subjective belief of right or wrong? Well said Asker.

That is because i am stupid and i choose to believe even if you don't. \n\nI for one believe everyone is entitled to their opinions and believe systems, but your opinion should not give you the right to call me stupid or any other name. \n\nHave you ever considered you could be wrong? What would you do then? I sure would like to see the smile on your face on that day. Any how, i believe in God because i know he first loved me. I know He loved me because i have experienced and continue to experience the liberty and peace of heart and mind the work of His son on the cross of Calvary did for me. You could be wrong you know, think about it.
