Christians, what do you think when I say Your a Muggle?

Are you insulted. Put off? Does it even bother you that a fictional book insults you?

If not why do several Christians on here assume that using scripture to insult atheists is going to do anything but give Christianity a bad reputation? To an atheist the Bible is little more than a fictional fairy tale. Why would they care what it says when you insult them with it?

I see it day in & day out on here & while I'm not an atheist even I have to come to their defense. Christianity is supposed to be a religion of love & compassion. Using the Bible to insult another religion or even a non religious person is totally hypocritical & gives the religion a bad name.

What are you trying to accomplish by acting like this? Is this some form of Christian trolling? Are you trying to push people away from the religion?

Now if your not one of the ones posting this kind or rhetoric or forcing your particular views down every ones throat feel free to ignore this question. This is soley meant for the zealots giving religion a bad name.

Update:

Ok, I get it. I'm getting crucified for my grammar, but nobody has addressed the point I was making.

Update 3:

@ The Great & Modest, of course I didn't mean you.

Update 4:

@ oli, thank you for pointing out that I give good insightful answers to a multitude of categories but it fails to help your case.

As for taking up for the church... The people I'm talking about aren't taking up for the church, they're attacking others using religious doctrine in an insulting manner. That is totally detrimental to the cause & casts an ugly shadow on the religion. Faith is something deeply personal & cannot be attacked.

Update 5:

Most atheists would be content to simply say " I don't believe" & leave it at that. If the zealots of the church are allowed to continually attack them can you blame them for becoming resentful?

    It amuses me and infuriates me at the same time when christians (and other religions) shove their 'holy' scriptures in your face as 'proof' of their gods commands or whatever.

    Why can't they understand age old myths have no substance for convincing free thinking sensible others their beliefs are just that - beliefs?

    What should I think when I see Christians taking up for the church and God and being harassed by atheists while you spend your time answering questions like the following: I've missed my birth control pills, what shall I do?

    How long is marijuana in your system? Legal drinking with minors present?

    Sounds like you could stand to keep yer mouth shut.

    Honey, what are you talking about? Calm down. A Muggle? What is that, like a furball of some sort?

    If you don't believe the bible, fine. Stop ranting, go outside and get some sunshine.

    I think you really need to go back to grammar school and learn the difference between the possessive and the contraction of the conjugal verb.

    I think of Harry Potter, personally, or more accurately, his rude human family.
