And atheists believe the same, other beliefs believe the same. Why point fingers making the Christians look bad when in fact atheists and other beliefs are doing the same thing?



Some of them do, I'll give you that. I've met some very obnoxious atheists as well as condescending Christians.

Just make sure you are not one of them.

Atheists don't usually go around preaching their non-belief however. They merely respond to in-your-face religious zealots who have been throwing their power and authority in every-bodies faces for two centuries. They are fighting back basically.

So now Christians are whining and complaining about it. Boo hoo. sad
They can dish it out but they can't take it.

Just stop spreading the propaganda and you will not be bothered and you won't have to complain.

I think everyone in the world by now has heard about Jesus. There is no need to spread the word anymore. Let people make their own choices. If they want to know more, they can go to church and ask questions.





What you said is semi irrelevant. For we are in a GENERAL RELIGION CHAT forum. This is the area we are to come to, to discuss our own personal RELIGIOUS beliefs. No one is shoving anything down anyone's throats, just again merely CHATTING about our religious beliefs.


You still don't really see the difference between DISCUSSION and PREACHING. Once you have stated your beliefs, and someone disagrees, the conversation is basically over at that point.

Yes there is a difference between discussion and preaching. But once one states their belief and someone disagrees, why is it not fair for that person to explain why they believe as such? Weather that is a Christian explain or an Atheists. You gotta also remember preaching goes both ways. If it is seen as preaching when a Christian discusses their belief in depth, it is also preaching when an Atheist discusses their belief in depth. The coin here is two sided. But do you hear a Christian stating "Why you always preaching to me" or something as such to an Atheist? No, not usually anyways. So why do Atheists and other beliefs do that to the Christians? Again, the coin is two sided. If it is preaching when a Christian tells their beliefs then it is preaching when an Atheist tells their beliefs.

How would it be much of a "discussion" and or "chat" if one side states what they believe, then someone responds but the other doesn't reply back? How is that a chat? How is that a discussion? That's not, that's rambling with no substantial direction.

I don't see the point in doing that.

If I know something that someone wants to learn, I am happy to spend some time with them to show them what I know and share that with them.

But if they are only interested in telling me how wrong I am, I don't have the time for that. That is what Christians will do.

My time is valuable. I am willing to teach, but I am not willing to discuss differences or argue with someone who already thinks they know it all.
