how can christians call themselves loving?

They will do nothing for the average person except chime "I'll put you on the prayer list" and hope someone else does something to help that person. Then they expect people to join this merciless cult? I don't get it.

Just as their Churches do little to help those in Need from the Collection Plate except to increase their Profit Margins or Build another Church

Being a Christian I can answer saying that I have seen Christians go out of their way for others, but I have also seen very hypocritical judgemental stingy ones to. A lot of people judge all for what some do.I don't believe anyone should force their religion on you, I also believe that there are loving Christians.

Many people get up for work in the morning and go throught the motions -it is a job.

Some people have bad days and just go through the motions, and are no different from the "Theist" down the street.

I must say that the closer we are to God in our hearts continually, the more the Holy Spirit flows.

The fruits of the SPirit...love peace joy happiness, self-control etc.,

You may get hurt if you continue to put "Christians" on a pedestal. I know I have been hurt and shocked. All in the period of a month.

First of all, God does not send you to hell, you choose to go there. He gives you many chances and free will to believe in Him and choose the path that leads to heaven. In no way is He evil. However, because He loves us enough to let us make our own decisions, evil comes into the picture. Unfortunately, the devil is very powerful and many people think that God is the one doing evil, when in fact it is the devil. Also, we are not here just to kiss God's ***. It is a mutual loving relationship, not a kiss *** relationship. God does so much for us, and in return, Christians try to do things for Him. Any human relationship is sort of like what a relationship with God should be like. Mutual love and respect. Doing things that make the other person (or God) happy. I agree that some "Christians" don't really have much love in them and are just there for show. But those aren't real Christians. Real Christians do have love, that's what Jesus and being a Christian is all about! And as for they don't care about eternal torture, have you ever heard of missionaries? Missionaries are Christians that go around the world to tell people about God so that they Won't have to face eternal torture. That is why Christians try to help people realize the truth that God is real and that heaven and hell do exist! The whole point of being a Christian is to love one another and make sure that your neighbor knows about God. It is each Christians' duty to proclaim God's love and keep people from going to hell. It's just too bad people think the way you do because that is not what Christians are about, at all. I mean of course there are many who claim to be Christians and "shrug off" people that they think are going to hell, but real Christians are here to make sure that doesn't happen. I am a Christian, and there is no way that I want anyone to go to hell! I do care about people and want to help. Altogether, I think you need to read the Bible before you start claiming God is evil and doesn't care about us. Yes, the Bible is God's word, and the main message is love! Well, I will pray for you! I hope that one day you will find the real truth and I will see you in heaven! I do care about people's souls, and don't want anyone to be tortured, and that's one reason why I pray!

There are better Christians than that, though the kind you described do exist.
