Why does it appear that most of you think that being a Christian means ...?

a soft, pathetic, bigotted person with no ability to form their own opinion and who behave like sheep and simply follow?



God says that we are leaders, warriors, priceless, Princes amongs men, designed to change Nations, be lights to others and lead the way. It says that we are capable of ALL miracles (in Jesus' name) and that ALL things are possible with God. So I have a few questions:



1) to Christians - why do you think there are so many of us who appear to be really homophobic, judgemental and angry on this website and doesn't it just break your heart about such a poor witness?



And 2) To non-Christians. Please tell me if you have ever met a Nation-changing, prayer warrior type Christain in your life and, if so, what did you think of them (and, 3, I guess, have you ever asked someone to pray for you?)



I appreciate that everyone will have differing opinions about my faith and Christians in general, but please, try and keep it as non-offensive as possible. ThanksWhy does it appear that most of you think that being a Christian means ...?I like playing with the %26quot;closed minded%26quot; whether they are religious or non-religious. I am an evolutionist and believe in the Big Bang, however I don't judge religious faith. If their beliefs make them comfortable, fine.

The biggest mystery of the Universe is; What was before the Big Bang!

Why is it so many here think that being an atheist means you %26quot;know%26quot; there are no deities?



Because almost no one here is willing to listen to anyone that has a belief or opinion even slightly different than their own. the single reason I'm here, and this is for me the answer to the big %26quot;why are atheists here%26quot; question, is because a hundred times a day I see people telling me what I think and believe.

People who believe in something beyond
Looks more to me like you are saying why wont Christians stop agreeing with God and start agreeing with atheism?



let me rephrase..i didnt read the entire question ...sorry.



It seems upon reflection of what you are asking is.. why can't we all just get along! LOL God does not want us to yet! It will be ok!
People use the Bible as a tool. Either as a guide or whip.



So Christianity can be seen as wisdom or oppression.



As a passsive athiest I think you can believe what you like.
0ften Christians are their own worst enemies. Don't talk about changing the world...just get on with it, and let the evidence show.
I despair at anyone who refuses to investigate their beliefs. I think that most people, when it comes down to it, are followers and it just so happens that if you are religious you are 100% guaranteed to have faith without evidence.

But don't worry, you have peers with victims of fashion and trend.
To be a Christian means the capacity of living in love for God and your family in a natural way.



You own Christianity for your secular law, the modern concept of family and children and many other things.



For your expression is obvious that you very much live in hate, materialism and self centered illness, you are nothing, God will put you in your place in a split second and this moment is near to you, when it happened you will know that God also read the hearts, the minds and Yahoo answer.



Yo are much more slave than anybody hear, cause you \don't even know what it is to have a well balanced life, to have a religion is not a favor you do to God, is in your own interest to open your eyes, this is the only language you understand, isn't it.



keep on after sex, alcohol and your credit card, telling the rest about our pitiful life...
I don't necessarily think that, but in a way you have answered your own question just as you are asking it.



In part you said; %26quot;..... with no ability to form their own opinion and who behave like sheep and simply follow?%26quot;



And you answered not with your explanation of why you believe, but with..



%26quot;God says that we are leaders, warriors, priceless, Princes amongs men, designed to change Nations, be lights to others and lead the way. It says that we are capable of ALL miracles (in Jesus' name) and that ALL things are possible with God. So I have a few questions%26quot;



You justify your faith simply by repeating what you have been taught. How can we think of you as an independent thinking person?
