All of you that bash christianity are just as close-minded as the conservative-christians themselves.
I don't think you're bashing Christianity when you comment on those who practice it. It's like calling Islam an evil religion based on the actions of those who claim they practice it. The critisism is of the inherent hypocracy of those who claim to be doing something in the name of faith when their actions clearly suggest otherwise.
Sorry, I guess I misread some things. I thought someone did infact bash christianity. I agree though, about the hypocrisy. However, for every "bad" christian, I bet there are a few or more "good" ones.
Anyway..why start a thread about this anyway? Many people, in every religion, do the same thing the OPs dad does. Christians aren't the only ones guilty.
So you are saying not ALL chrisians are holier than thou bible thumpers who hate moe than they could EVER love, well, prove it. From what i have seen so far, religion is just used ot further you OWN agena no matter how silly it is.
That goes for Islam and chrisianity an religion as a whole.
Yes. How would I go about proving something like that over the net? I am sorry you have such a skewed view of christianity. Yes, many Churches are simply businesses, but there is a lot of good in others and still in some people.
Religion is sometimes actually about faith, believe it or not.
My post was somewhat sarcastic, that is why i said "So you are saying not ALL chrisians are holier than thou bible thumpers".
I am not really arguing against you at all.
What i meant by "prove it" is to live without condemnation of others, not that you should prove anything to me, i don't think you HAVE anything to prove to me. but to live such a life would certainly be in the spirit of christ, don't you agree?
I am no choir boy myself, far from it, so no, there is no way to prove whatever it is you think i wanted you to prove, and there is no reason to even try either.
Finally, to quote Scooter. "respect the man in the ice cream van"
