    Christianity is what Christ has done for all of us by not only dying on the cross For us but rising again bodily For us. He's made the Only way for a person to gain entrance to heaven. Otherwise mankind would be doomed to hell. It's through Christ that a person doesn't have to be weak or cowardly. Everyone Can be strong and bold in their daily lives. It's through God / the Holy Spirit indwelling the born-again believer, that we that we Can have strength and boldness / completeness.

    According to Niestche, and I believe he understood Christianity a lot better than most Christians today: Christianity caters to the weakest elements of humanity.

    So no, Christianity is not a religion of heroes.

    Christianity is a religion of weak, imperfect people, changing the world for the better.

    False. Christianity is a likeness of "Christians collectively". As in, the collective group of followers of Christ. Jesus never once referred to His following of disciples as a 'religion'. All people have some form of weakness, whether they are Christian or not. 'Hero' is a title given to people who have made noble and/or brave accomplishments. Very few people are considered heroes.

    True and false, religion is a way that people use because their to lazy to do their own research so they think the ministers will do for them. Of course they won't so you have what Jesus said the blind leading the blind. They do hide behind their ignorance as a excuse but it does not work that way. Yet even man knows ignorance of the law is no excuse

    True. Hebrews 11 talks about the heroes of faith. And it's not easy to stand up for what we know is true even though society has different standards. Look at what the Presbyterian church did today. Shameful!

    LOL St.Paul BRAGGED about his weakness. Because he was made STRONG through his faith in Christ Jesus. Now I admit that if you are martyred you'd better have intestinal fortitude. Jesuits were tortured for days by Iroquois Indians for example before they were "allowed" to die. Don't worry. It is FAITH that gives you COURAGE and faith will see you through.
