Christians: Why respond to questions that are disrespectful to our religion?

"Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds" (2 John 1:9-11).   \n\n\nSee?\n\nThe bible tells you to not even speak with these heathens.

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.

Hi, I have constantly asked the same question and have advised Christians on this forum to leave these questions alone, to not even click on them as they will only disturb their peace.\nin this way all those who post vile comments will finally be wasting their time as no reaction is unfulfilling to them.

Yes, I agree with you 100%. We should all try to respect other people's religious beliefs even if we don't agree. It is rude to get into shouting matches with others. We don't want to be argumentative. God is a peaceful person and we should strive to be the same. Peace.

And you get mad when someone insults your religion and your belief.\n\nYou want respect?,then show some respect towards others and there beliefs.

Relax? I don't think they can some of the nonbelievers don't answer with harsh words I've seen about two that simply give you their opinion like parrot, and I've Got A Ruler but some others seem to just be mean may be it's the ones who answer with mean words really don't know why they don't believe so that's why the answers are things like I don't believe because of the Christians, or God is stupid like you, or my favorite stop preaching to me, oooohhhhh but let those same ppl ask a question like Are all Christians stupid? Are you a bible Thumper? It's alrighty then....\n\n I liked the question..... after all it was simply a question.

My pet peeve is people that bash other religions, yet the religions they bash they think they know all about. Great question!

Not necessarily.  I know of some Christians who are persecuted because they are jerks.  Then, when they complain, they use "it's because I'm a Christian" as their defense.

This seems to be typical again. You are asking a question about a specific topic about the Christian believe but you want to shut up the very people involved in this believe to shed some light on this. That shows me that you are not really searching for the truth but just want people to tickle your itching ears to speak out against Christianity in order to quiet your conscience.\nIf Christians would ask a question and mention that non-Christians are not to be involved in the discussion, they immediately would be called names and bashed and perceived as biased, close minded and hateful, wanting to brain wash people and shut down free speech.\nYou can see this over and over in these question/answer situations, really eye opening!\nI am not attacking you with this, just in case some people start wondering again, just uncovering some truth and exercising free speech. Have a nice day ;) May the Holy Spirit bring you some enlightenment in this matter...

Thanks, I thought I was the only person here who thinks that the thumbs up and down nonsense on such questions is childish.\n\nI don't know if it's hypocritical in all cases - not every religion says that their followers should not judge others - but it's certainly jejune.

To be honest with you I really don't know but it is really stupid to fight over religion. those christians who don't respect other religion is  considered biases, or racist. So I believe they are bad people themselves. But remember, other religious people are like that too, so not all christians are like that. there is only one God in this Universe and I don't think God cares about thousands of religion. What God really cares about is that you go to heaven.

No, Christians are called upon to be tolerant and respectful of other religions and cultures.  But if you take a look at the "religion and spirituality" section of this site, you'll see that often isn't the case.

We have a right to disagree, but not to disrespect. We can disagree in a civil matter. When we go about burning down places of worship or marking grafitti, using their icons and symbols purposely in a demeaning way...all of these are disrespectful. And one can be satirical about religions in a respectful way as well. I think we just have to ask ourself "if it were me, how would this make me feel?" before we act or before we say something...because sometimes there are better ways to phrase what we have to say, but we don't stop to take the time to really think about all the ways we can say something. If we did then we wouldn't have to say things like "I didn't mean it like that" or "oh, well you know what I really meant".

Because, like the Bush administration, they will often deflect the actual substance of the question being asked upon the asker, to make the asker defenseive.  They will often attribute any behavior done for the sake of their belief as "moral."\n\nIn my experience, most Christians are either unaware of the real history of their belief system (believing that a book that says it is the truth is proof that it is) or in denial about the history their religion has of absorbing other religions and killing those who do not meet their "standards".  \n\nEvery society and culture on the planet has had morals for its own society.    Just because Christianity has spread so widely and wildly, many Christians seem to believe that bolsters the "fact" that their truth is more truthy than other religious beliefes -- let alone any beliefs of anyone who is non-religous.
