Why do "Christians"?

Why do people who call themselves "Christians" respond to others' questions first by calling them "stupid" or "ignorant"? If you were truly followers of Christ, as the label "Christian" implies, you would know better.

Wouldn't you?

    ignorant-Lacking knowledge or awareness in general; uneducated or unsophisticated..

    A person ( atheists ) who didn't read the Bible ( if did, read it without understanding ) and quoting the Bible and saying Jesus said blah blah blah, that makes him STUPID and lacking knowledge.

    I never call anyone on here stupid, but I will call them ignorant, because it is not bad, if it is the truth.

    And why are you complaining, don't you claim to be a " Christian yourself". So how do you say religion is man made? Jesus was the one who created Christianity. If it is man made, why are you following it? Jesus called us no more Jews, but the children of the lord. Jesus and God are one. Have you ever been to a church? In the Bible, When Jesus asked Peter, who do you think I am. Peter said the Christ.

    How do you say there is no hell and that all the good people will live on earth? God said his kingdom is not of this world, his kingdom is in heaven. The devil is real, earth will be the Devil's kingdom, with all the sinners with him.

    And lastly, Christianity is all or nothing religion. Its either you follow all the rules, or you don't. You cant choose to follow some things, while ignoring other things. Jesus said homosexual is a sin. He said that these people will burn in hell. It doesn't matter if they have intercourse or not, just being a homosexual is a sin. People back in the day would send their child to places to " cure " them of this evil thing. Now with all the crap going on, they started marrying.

    It is hard to accept Christianity for its many rules and believes. That is why only few will be chosen. I added you as a "contact" a couple days ago, because I saw you claiming to be a Christian, but having your own thoughts. If want more information, or anything else, my email is yimihere@yahoo.com

    That is low, and immature or hateful, take your pick.

    Now literally the word 'ignorant' may be correct but due to it's import,

    it is a poor choice of words.

    Better to say 'you don't see'...words are powerful. However, not many know

    how powerful, and since I am Christian, and do believe there's more than

    just humans here, I know the devil can work through the Christian's

    ...must use the word..stupidity...and by that I don't mean a moron,

    but in a stupor, unaware, not thinking, and ultimately it can be said,

    not...

    caring enough.

    If there's one thing, and just one thing that I do love about Christianity

    that it teaches me, has taught me is to find within me where I do not care,

    and expunge that in the power I'm given.

    Jesus was precise in His words, and sometimes He said hard things

    to people who were part of darkness.

    What I see is so often the person is saying more about themselves

    than about the one they insult.
