Christianity - Religion of violence?

***DeaditeDan*** · October 16th, 2004

Why are Christians so intolerant?

Why do they bomb abortion clinics? Why did they commit genocide against hundreds of thousands of Bosnian Muslims? Why did they committ genocide on Lebanese Muslims? Why was I physically assaulted several times in my former hometown for not believing in God by these Christian people?

It seems these Christians are all about violence as the path to God, and intolerance.

I am an athiest myself. My path allows me to make my decisions based on my own ideas, intelligence etc. and is pro-peace, harmony, and anti-irrationality.

Religion is the opium of the masses. Atheism

I agree, 100%.

However I am posting this thread to demonstrate your stupidity in your "Islam - Religion of violence?" thread. It was simplistic and generalizing. Islam is no more violent or idiotic than any religion out there including Christianity which is why I made this thread.

Will i do not know whats happened to you dead or what any "christians" have done to you, but god doesnt tell us to comit genocide or beat athiest till the believe in jesus. Actually it says that if someone doesnt share the same beliefs as you to show them gods love and accept them for who they are.

When you say that athiesm allows you to have your own decisions and what? Does a christain like me not use my intelligence to make decisions. I dont see why you think that someone who believes in god is just a zombie who walks around with a bible in thier pocket and takes it out everytime they are about to do something.

Let me ask you this are there no intollerant athiest?

Im sure my post wont change anything, its an aguement thats been had at it for too many years. Im sorry you've come across some bad apples. Some people claim to be christians but that doesnt mean they know jesus. There's a difference between a religion and a relationship with christ.

Anyways have a good night or day depending on when you read this.

I'm a Christian...I've never killled anyone. You must remember that all religions have extremists, they do not represent the majority.

I have been a christian for 9 years. as far as I can remember I havn't blown up any abortion clinics or killed any jews or muslims.

People love to look and judge things by the extremes. These people need to realise that they're generalising millions of people by the actions of a few.

Why did Turkish Muslisms kill 1.6 million Christian Armenians during World War 1 and nobody has been punished? That's a question I'd like answered. The Fuckers got away with fucking genocide. And all the jews get the attention

What does it matter? It's not a competition to see who has had the worst acts committed against them. The people who committed these acts will all be old, in a few years they will all be dead, let time have it's way.
