Why is it okay for Christians to "flex their muscles" but not other religions?

I'm just wondering, why is it that Christians say they have an all forgiving God, and blah blah blah, and find it okay for them to preach their word and whatnot, but not others?

Who's to say other Gods didn't come before this one? Are people really THAT ignorant and arrogant as to say "I'm right and you're wrong, so you're going to Hell"? Isn't THAT a sin? You don't even know if you're really right, you say you have the Bible, but other religions have objects like that too.

I know all you Christians believe there is only one God, but please would you shut up about it being the only God, some people believe in different things, and saying that that is wrong is saying people aren't allowed to have an opinion.

Clearly religion leads to tunnel vision, ignorance, and the inability to accept the beliefs of others.

AMEN.

    Because a lot of Christians have this very intrusive idea that they're religion is pretty awesome and righteous. Not all, of course, believe that. I personally like blaming it on their ignorance and stupidity. I do believe you will find it in all religions, but depending on where you live, some religions will be more prominent than others, therefore more pushy. If you really want to get them to stop, or get them mad (which is hilarious), just try to spin logic on the idea.

    not all Christians try this. As somebody who used to maintain on with that philosophy, i ought to be waiting to furnish you an answer, nevertheless. i might say those precise issues because of the fact of each and every of the variations i might locate in church homes i might pass to. i might substitute into so annoyed with attempting to be sure what i became into "meant" to have self assurance, i eventually gave up. I grabbed my Bible and started out examining. I do have a private relationship with Jesus, and via the Bible I discovered the way He needed me to stay. consequently, i did not detect myself with any specific denomination of Christianity. I basically lived because of the fact the Bible instructed me I might desire to.

    I totally agree. Wiccans have never and will probably never do what Christians have done for over a thousand years. Yet Wiccans get picked on quite a bit.

    only truth is worth speaking, lies are worthless, so Jesus is worth shouting from the mountain tops

    God and the Bible say there is only one, and the Bible is the word and truth of God
