Only when they use their Christianity as an excuse to be jerks.

An extreme example of this is the Salem witch trials. The people who conducted those were pure evil.


I heard that crap thousands of times. Not all people who say they're Christians are.

If God exists and is good, then you won't. And if He isn't good, then being in hell is better than being with Him, as hell is defined as distance from God.

You have committed no act of evil that should bring hell upon you. And even deeds as small as taking care of your kitty make you worthy of heaven.

That is... if there is a God and He is good.

Not to mention the practice of exorcism on certain people believing they were possesed by demons when in fact they had a different mental condition, in the 20th century.

What have we got to gain by telling people they can't do things? What agenda do we have?

Because certain things are offensive to us because God says they offend Him.

Really? Well Jews are much better company and more intelligent than Christians anyway, so I don't mind going to Hell then.

So how about I say things which are offensive to you? What would happen to me? THAT is what's not fair. You people and Mods are so liberal bias-the fact you're allowed to get away with posting that crap proves it.
