I can see why you feel this way. I am a Christian but the ones who say they are Christians are they using it as a name tag or are they really saved or not and living the walk instead of just talking the talk? People should not hide the fact that they are Christians or saved either for that matter. But we have to understand as Christians or saved people that sometimes the only Jesus people see is us! Are we doing and living the way Jesus would and treating others the way he would have .... WWJD What would Jesus do is something to ask ourselves before doing anything that may be questionable in God's eyes. Do we treat others the way Jesus would? Sorry I am rambling on here so i will get off my soap box now lol. Sorry! Real Christians should not have affairs either or ever. But we are not perfect either and can slip up and make mistakes and err but we need to get out of it and ask for forgiveness from God and move on and not live any longer that way ! God hates divorce and adultery!

I am a Christian in the sense that I believe the Bible is truth, I believe Jesus is the only way to God the Father, and I believe I can communicate with the Father through the Holy spirit.\n\nAs of late however, I no longer identify myself with the term "Christian" because of what I've come to associate that term with.\n\n"Christians" will hurt you, lie to you, talk about you behind your back.  They will judge you, criticize you, try to tell you what God wants when they don't actually know.  Christians will hide behind God.  They will use "God told me..." as an excuse to say HORIBLE things to people.  While I believe God speaks to people, I also believe that this excuse is horribly abused often times.  "Christians" will be elitists, the will exclude you, they will look down on you and even kick you out of your home.  They will assume the worst of you, they will over react, they will hold you to double standards.  This is what "Christians" will do to you, and this is what they have done to me and those whom I love and hold dear.\n\nThis is why I have chosen to worship only TRUTH.  Jesus is the truth, the way, and the life.  Everything else, including his followers are sadly doing more harm than good in many cases.\n\nLiberating myself from my "christian social standing" has allowed me to look at people non-judgmentally for the first time.  It has allowed me to be happy for people in spite of their "sin."  It has made me more aware that sins that hurt other people are much more intolerable to me than socially debatable sins.  It has also made me realize that sins that "Christians" commit are far more abhorent to God in many cases.  "Christians" often commit sins of the spirit and of pride and greed.  The bible says these sins are demonic and much more despisable than sins of the flesh.  "Christians" need to stop worrying about other people's sins of the flesh, and start worrying about their own hearts.  Myself included.

Very well said.  I am already a Christian, but I just had to see what the Atheists would say (and disprove them).  Keep up the good work.

Wow! That is a very well thought out question. I guess the best way to answer that is to say that you have to go on faith. We all believe differently. Unfortunately we were not there when the authors of the Bible were doing their thing. We can talk to God. But, it is difficult to be sure of his response. If we get one at all. Its all in what you believe.

Why ask this question? See this is why I hate Christians and I am one. Not that I hate you, but come on. You wont convert anyone with this!

Have to love christians - follow god or you will suffer for eternity. Please, give us a break with all of your religious crap. Nothing like trying to scare people into believeing something.

sounds like your intellect is taking over the from the "brain-washing" of modern church-run christianity...I do the same as you, and gave up on the so-called christians.  do your own thing, as long as it is good, true, and beneficial to others without spite, judgement and intolerance, you will go to heaven....stay away from the bible thumpers

i think you are rite, in away, i know consciously i do things for God. before i was a christian i did things because i had to, or someone was going to be mad....now, its a bit different, i do things for others, because God wants me to and because of the new love i have now, for other people....God put that there though.and, yes, i do hope for the blessings of God. and I'm sure at times/and times to come i will want some acknowledgment...but ill take a deep breath and remember why I'm doing what I'm doing...and ask God for forgiveness..... thank you for the good question.  God bless you

What religion are you?\nWhy do you hate Christians?\nShould they be perfect?\nAre you hateful?\nWhat is the purpose of this question?

Get a grip dude.  I am real and I am here and will be here until I am not here.  God is in the eye of the beholder so save your sermon for the religion section okay.  Have a blessed day....whatever THAT means.  Peace out!

Even though I admire your efforts, the way you have asked the question, will only make the christians feel insulted and become defensive. Only a very openminded one would read your post and seriously think about what you are saying. Good points, though.

I have respect for all people. If you where walking past me and fell, I would help you to your feet. Would you accept my hand if you knew that I was a Christian? I hope you would, but my point is that, what I have seen of your religion, makes me think that you wouldn't. And its not my government, or my God(that I believe is god), that influenced my feelings on this. It's a combination of what I've seen and heard of your beliefs and the actions that make me want nothing to do with your religion. As a Christian I would hope you'd take my offered hand, but I can't bring myself to believe that you would.

Will you PLEASE lay off about that already. You know it gets very tiresome to see 30 threads a day about how atheists are just going to go to hell. And no, I don't mean from you. There's always someone posting that. And if you're asking if all Christians think Atheists are going to hell... don't you think it's a no brainer that they think that?

"NICKNAME", who are you?  That is really wrong!  Crosses are not pagan in the least!  They are not idols, they are ways of remembering the amazing thing that Christ did for us.  And Christ DID die on a cross.  Where'd you come up with stake from?  Read your Bible and do your research!  Goodness!  I've never heard such a thing before as "Jesus died on a stake"!  That's rubbish.  I'm sorry if I sound rude, I'm just in a stressful mood.  But I mean what I say.  If anyone wants to talk to me about Christianity, feel free.  My email is earthtoblondes@yahoo.com  Give me an email if you have any questions/comments!  I hope to help everyone I know to become a Christian, and I'd like to help you too!

I wasn't going to answer this, but then I thought, at least non christians tend to post their comments in the right place, which is in response to  a question, whether it's what you want to hear or not, at least it's where it can be read by anyone who chooses to see it.  Unlike the many so called christians who seem to take great delight in declaring their saved status and yet at the same time spam countless mail boxes with vitriolic e-mails full of spite and hatred and arrogance.\nObviously I accept not all christians are like this, but you have a minority on here who unfortunately are ensuring there will never be tolerance, acceptance and harmony between all parties,

Facts ... I believe in "God". I am not able to accept the Christian version of monotheism. I consider it illogical and it makes no sense to me. I do not lie awake at night not believing. The Bible is not perfect. It has been mistranslated by numerous translators in various translations. Christianity is not the worlds longest running religion. There was Judaism and Hinduism and several others prior to 2000 years ago that are still alive and well. You asked for facts. Those are facts. I'm not Christian. That doesn't bother me. You are Christian. That doesn't bother me either. Instead of worrying about others and their relationship with "God" or their lack of same maybe there's something else you need to be looking at? Just a thought. And that's a fact. :-)
