And Christianity by far has been the worst religion throughout the decades. Being the largest and deadliest religion never will end in a good thing.
Ioniz3dSPIRITZ;605291 said:This is a reasonable and honest answer. Now you mentioned Christianity as being the "deadliest" religion. Is it deadly because of the people who've manipulated it to further their own evil agenda or because of it's ideology. Is it Christians who give Christianity a bad name? Should we even call them true Christians? Where do you draw the line?

ThaChozenWun;605419 said:To me the true christians are the worst ones, they are the ones who will kill thinking they are doing it in gods name or it is the work of god. True christians are the ones who judge others based off their beliefs. To me it is deadly because the true christians, they are the ones who led crusades into places killing in the name of god to get a piece of land back. I believe some have definently used it to further their agenda only.. ie Hitler, but there has also been plently of killing and torture based of its ideology. So as to the first part yes I think it is the true christians who give the religion its bad image, and they are where I draw the line.
I can deal with Christians who can accept that the book won't be 100% accurate because it was man who wrote it, I accept Christians who believe we should treat everyone with respect no matter race or religion. Sometimes they annoy me like my wife last night read my sig and flipped out n smashed my xbox because I wont believe in her god but wrote god like commandments for a basketball player. To me thats crossing the line. On the other hand she does believe in evolution and believes the Earth is older than bible time says. She is also willing to explore other options and base her beliefs on what she see's. I can accept those people, now if plug your ears and say lalalalalalala while any kind of logical questioning or scientific evidence points toward something non bible like, and you have that violent attitude toward the name of god then thats just crossing the line.
All in all I guess those who follow the new testament are far better than those who also studied the OT because the two vary so much with violent acts it's two different monsters, and those with a good understanding of the OT and who fail to accept anything not in the bible are dangerous to people. Those who try to pray away global issues or illnesses instead of helping science find a way to fix them are bad for mankind. Those are the ones I can't stomach.

alissowack;606098 said:I believe the reason for the harsh treatment of Christianity is that there is a misunderstood view of who a Christian is and it is not just with those who are not believers, but for believers as well. There is the impression by all who try to grasp it that it is a means to an end; that there is something to gain in being a Christian. There are personal agendas involved in whether or not one chooses to believe or not believe. I believe a lot of the murders in the name of Christ (or God) are not because they were serving a higher calling. They were serving themselves. It's one thing to hate somebody or something and you not have a cause beyond your own dislike. Throw in God and it makes a person feel that they can hate and it has a justifiable cause. The "God" element gives people a reason to try to free themselves from something that may be morally convicting to them. And to top it off, they can live forever in their own perceived notion "Heaven".

kingblaze84;609835 said:The Bible supports slavery......what religion do you think Thomas Jefforson, George Washington, and Christopher Columbus belonged to? How do you think slavery was justified by the Spaniards and the British.....by reading passages from the Bible that DIRECTLY support it. The Bible can suck my big black dick......I know I say that a lot but it still stands.
ThaChozenWun;609862 said:Thomas Jefferson wasnt christian, he like Ben Franklin didnt give a fuck about church.
kingblaze84;609848 said:Not really, read the Bible for urself and see what me and others here are talking about. I'm not part of any religion (I'm Buddhist but it's more a philosophy to me than a religion) so I have no reason to hate against Christianity or single it out. I don't look upon the Koran highly either if it makes you feel better.
