Christianity is pretty busy religion. Based on interpretation, it can be a strict lifestyle or a strict business. Compared to other religions, Christianity doesn't seem to be taken as seriously. Is it the society we live in, or the fallacies found within Biblical text?

Debate.

Religion is just a crock IMO.

I refuse to let a several thousand year old book dictate my life and tell me how I should treat others etc etc. I was raised with enough common sense to know to treat everyone (whether you agree with them or not) with the upmost kindness and respect. These "Christians" claim to be loving and accepting yet they are always the ones on tv protesting in some anti-gay march or judging some other group of people rolleyes.gif all because "the Bible says its wrong" well the Bible also says eating shellfish is an abomination and that it is ok to murder your disobedient child but I guess they just conveniently choose to ignore those phrases and other non-sense rules that the Bible contains. The fact that we have people out there who really take this book literally is just frightening, are people out there really that moronic? have they actually read this garbage? I guarantee alot have not and have been brainwashed since childhood to love this "God" and obey this "Bible"

It's just sad.

I think it's interesting how people have an incorrect idea of what Christianity is and then are quick to judge it and call it a "crock of shit".

Just like those so called "Christians." Good job, you're just like them.

No, but would you like to come back with a an intelligent rebuttal instead? So far all you've done was cry about how bad Christians were. That's not debate. Relationships/Advice thread is over there. --->

It would be pointless and a waste of my time, nothing I can say will convince you. The brainwashing has been done.
