We have to remember that as Christians we're to be followers of Christ, not of others. What did Christ do? He spent his time in fellowship with "sinners" (aka ALL OF US). The often missed verse after John 3:16 is 3:17:
For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved.
We always need to remind ourselves that the main difference between Christians and non-christians is that we KNOW we're lost and need a Savior - we're no better than anyone else.

-xXGodslayer_RaiXx- Odd Warrior Christianity is about disrespecting the believers of Judaism by determining that the religion that they made and governed and were experts of is false in favor of a false messiah that they do not recognise. Incorperation of teachings that are impossible to fit inside the context of a loving creator. To be honest? Christianity is just another way for people to avoid reality and point their fingers whilst avoiding mirrors. Since you guys have come into the domain of people who wish to think freely with your disgusting conversion attempts, inaccurate doctrine, lack of support for your outrageous claims that you expect the entire world to uphold, and sometimes your flat out lies, then I'm returning the favor. I'll bid thee kindly good bye. Perhaps some of you will be kind enough to grace the M&R with EDUCATED responses, not more uneducated dribble drabble that isn't even spelled properly. Before you suscribe to a set of beliefs, make damned sure you know what you're getting into. I can tell you what you're getting into, but it would destroy your faith. For those of you that want to keep your faith, don't test it. For those of you who are in doubt, then become a free thinker, set your soul free and release your heart of these burdens that your mind finds disgusting and fallacious. He does have a point though. If you look at all the followers of Christianity and observe how they act around people who aren't of the same faith, most of them will spout out hatred of others and say things like "You're going to hell, etc". It has happened to me and they will also do it to those who worship God a little differently than what they do. Again it has happened to me. I think that to me Christianity is supposed to be about loving everyone even though they are not of the same faith, sexual orientation etc. We need to be more respectful of others opinion, faith, sexual orientaion, etc. Just because they don't believe in what you believe, think, etc doesn't give you the right to attack them. That's why I'm pretty much disgusted with how Christians act. I have to completely agree with God Slayer. I'm a Christian and ppl just shove things in peoples face when not knowing them. I don't why ppl do that. But when I see that someone is hurt I just tell them that I'm there for them. Remebering that God was there for me not just me but a Nation. NOT JUST A NATION A UniVerse! NOT JUST A UNIVERSE! DX But Heaven... I want everyone to read others comments on this post. Stand up for what you belive Chrisitan or Athiests! You guys encourage me so much as I read these post =D.

Perhaps because people have an obsession with being right?
Christians are admittedly shoddy representations of Christ. But Christianity is supposed to be about being Christ-like. Loving as He loved and so forth. He gave His life for the world, though. That's a big calling.
