About "Make Me a Christian," British reality show...

I would not be able to tolerate being a contestant on a show like this, but I think it is a great idea. I am willing to bet that it turns more people off of Christianity than it will draw towards it. I think this show will be a boon to Atheism.

The only way I am going to appear on this show is if the title gets changed to "I bet your best efforts cant make me a Christian."

And yes, I would be willing to do whatever they asked for three weeks. Including Bible study.

EDIT - wait a sec - the article says that they will give up their normal lives to "live like Christians". Since when does the average Christian take INTENSIVE Bible study courses and spiritual mentoring?? All I have to do to live my life as a Christian for three weeks is to pray and act like a judgmental hypocrite and I have completed the challenge!

If the people are really open to it then I think it would be ok, but if people just go on the show because they have something to prove or some adjenda to fulfill, then I don't think it would be a good idea. because then they will just go into the show with the mindset of "there is no way I'm going to believe this, I'll just do this to make Christianity look stupid". if they do it they should do it because they really want to know if it is real and true. And they have to be willing to ask God if it is real, instead of just relying on themselves for the answers.

Not showing yet so cannot comment. But sounds like an even bigger pile of crap than any other british reality show - and we're talking major CRAP here!

The idea disgusts me.

I am Christian.

Christianity is not meant to be used for entertainment.

It is not to be trivialized.

I DO NOT think it's great.

When you consider the great cost there was for God, how can ANY thinking person do something like this?

I think it is awesome to look into other possibilities or cultural beleifs. I think the bible is too sexist and discriminating against lifestyles of others, so I don't think I'd want anything to do with that, though.

"Non-Christians, would you appear on a show like this?"

Sure. Maybe someone there will finally be able to give me a good answer to some of the questions I have.

Here is the official website.http://www.channel4.com/culture/microsites/C/can_y...

I think you may be able to watch online when it airs.

I also think the concept is horrendous.

If I were in that show, I couldn't stand up with those Bible study because I already knew it! My mind is immune to it. =D

That might be interesting, I have never heard of it before. I would think if it would help those understand the bible would depend on the speaker they have.
