T4R. You can't. I feel it's time some of the ignorant haters learn what Christianity is actually about because I'm absolutely sick of reading false accusation after false accusation pertaining to Christianity.
ATTENTION:
THE CRUSADES IS NOT A VALID ARGUMENT.
Christianity as a religion does not condone murder or even killing in the name of Christianity. The decision to fight was made by the pope. The pope OBVIOUSLY does not control the religion. To be a Christian, you must follow Jesus Christs' word. Jesus never condoned killing. Therefore the pope went against his own religion in ordering a war. The pope does not have more say than Jesus. The pope does not control the religion. He is was nothing more than a man in power and a hypocrite. You can not blame a religion for being evil when individual people who can do whatever they want do something bad and affiliate themselves with the religion.
I mean If you're going to do that then:
A guy who lives to eat fried chicken kills someone. So people who eat fried chicken are evil!
It's stupid.

Today I had a thought, if there truly was a god. There wouldn't be so many different religions. We'd all belive in the same thing. But we don't

Edited by TidalSurge: 2/18/2015 4:57:50 AMChristianity is relationship. We organize and worship the god of love in remembrance of the prince of peace, Jesus Christ, because it is in the works and sacrifice of the risen son that we find the mercy of our salvation, and in the fathers eye we find grace that draws us to his heart. Those who do not keep forgiveness have decided to keep animosity for The Lord. That's all fine and dandy, but don't expect to be able to plea for forgiveness at the judgement seat. We have been forgiven of our debts through a free gift of salvation. He accepts us as we are. Does this mean we are approved before god, as we are? Because he accepts us does not mean that our wicked ways are approved of. All of those who continually point out faults of religious leaders and corrupted groups of "believers" don't seek to understand this concept because their objective is to dismantle religion altogether.

I thought Christianity was a category of religion, not a religion itself? Just the ones that believe in jesus?

Praise jesus

David is glorified by religious people, but he -blam!- one of his soldier's wife and got her pregnant. He then told him to come back to have sex with his wife so it would look like he was the father but he denied the request because he would be disgracing his king (David) and his god. David told the general to put the poor soldier on the front lines and to then leave him for dead so he couldn't testify for his pregnant wife when he returned. This is just one of the messed up stories in the bible and not even expressed deeply. To say this religion is peaceful is absurd.

I'll just say gays and that's all I need to.

God's fake Go outside and smell the science, bible thumper.

Catholicism =/= Christianity Baptists/non-denoms actually regard Catholics as being about on the same boat as Mormons. Pope's words don't mean crap to Protestants.

All religions technically are religions of peace. It comes down to what people do in their name
-
Every religion is a religion of peace, but it's followers are not necessarily followers of peace.

Meat is killing Christmas -> turkey

Any religion is a religion of peace. They all claim to be, at least. It's the acts of humanity that break that peace. Christian, Muslim...doesn't matter.

Edited by glazindonuts: 2/17/2015 4:25:13 AMMany Christians have killed in the name of god. The Bible is full of violence, slavery, r4pe, etc.

All those other religions are also wrong. Vote Republican!

Jesus taught peace and love. Not His or God's fault, that people -blam!-ed it up like usual.

To be Christian is to hate you're self for being human. I doubt you live by the rule 100% and never sin.

Enjoy.

Christianity may be OK, all those intolerant Christians are a completely different story.
