Welcome to Gaia! ::

@Lady Kayura: Please don't misjudge me, I already replied to your post and it seems its being ignored. I'm not like that I don't go flaming non-Christian's nor anyone outside of my belief nor do i blatantly tell anyone there wrong cause they could turn around and say the same thing, i know to them my belief is not indefinite nor proven, by their standards, neither is theirs so neither of us should be considered less for believing what we do. I am upset at the fact that just because we hold our belief, that we are flamed to no end. Now i know if i start a debate I'm in for it, i brought it on myself obviously I'm looking for an argument. What i have been seeing though is Christian's just looking for other Christians and getting attacked just for asking about or mentioning the name of Christ. If you so fully believe that i'm such a terrible person check my posts you wont see a single one that indicates hostility to non-Christians. So forgive me if i came off as a terrible non-Christian Judge who condemns people to hell even though i have no right to. I know my place and i don't want to come off as someone like that cause it makes me no better than the people i'm insulted by. I also admitted my fault i was a little harsh in that i used thickheaded, i can change it to hardened against our belief, or too strong in it to even heed mine? if you'd like.

posting for money

I ignored your reply because there was nothing worth responding to. Yes, yes flaming is bad. But you very easily used an attitude that puts people off here, among peers. It makes me wonder how you think you are being precieved, or if you consider that all. And FYI, you didn't come off as a terrible non-Christian judge, you came off as an elitist Christian know-it-all. It's the latter that makes all Christians look bad. You don't need to go back and change anything. What you need to do is next time you post, take a look at what you're posting and for a moment, think about how others will read it as.



So what does it mean when a Gaian has a facebook, what stereotype are they?

...
*prepares thought*

A lot of people have been hurt by religious beliefs being forced onto them,
or have been forced into feeling guilty or wrong. Though Christianity has been targeted as a religion of hate, despair, and guilt, nothing is beyond a sterotype.

Though, this problem is prospering in Christianity, it is not the religion that is the root problem, it is the people following a religion without understanding what the religion calls for. In my opinion: It is not Jesus's fault, nor the institution of Christianitity, it is G/god's for allowing dumb opressive people to countinue to florish.


Though, You should read the Bible compreensivly before ruling out annother religion, your mind could be made about a matter of whitch might be wrong. Are you sure what you belive is inerriable.

I love when people blame their problems on God, but then can't thank him when everything goes right. They only thanks themselves. My boyfriend has an ex-friend who hated God because a guy held a gun to his head when he was little. He wants to know why God would let that happen. It really annoys me. Everyone has bad stuff happen to them, but there's always a reason. And God will give good to those who deserve it.

But I know what you mean. Why is it so wrong? We're not sitting there telling anyone they're going to Hell. They say we judge them because of what they believe, but look at them. They're so close-minded.

My assumption is because they all want to be like the people in the anime they watch (For the record, I watch anime and read manga, but I don't get consumed into believing it's real, or obsess over it). I know not all people are like that, but I had some friends who became Buddhists, simply because they loved the Asian culture soooo much. It's illogical.

And they automatically assume every Christian is like the people who walk around with signs, saying Gays are going to Hell, and are rude to people who aren't like them. We may know the truth, but we don't shove it in anyone's faces.

I think as Gaia gets older it will lessen.

Firstly not all Christians shove their religion down people's throats, and secondly do you REALLY think that other religions DON'T do that? Your right because in the middle east if you aren't Muslim they just KILL YOU... if thats not shoving religion down your throat I don't know what it..So when you say that Christianity is anti-world that's just ignorant. ALL religions believe that they are right and that everyone else is wrong INCLUDING atheists. And ALL religions have people who try to shove their beliefs down other people's throats.
