Christian Or Hypocrits?

Post # 1
My Family And Often People i Interact with swear that they a perfect Christians, they say the religions is not forced but us a gift but get mad when u don't follow or agree with their views.
They Force traditions but say that its your choice to follow.
Say That Everyone can be forgiven but will burn for eternity for not choosing to be one?

Curse Often But are surprised when other do.
Comment on drinking and smoking being bad but when they do it *its a sin but i don't do it a lot.

Now wth is up with that twisted logic?

Pagans or Hypocrites? Just a thought....how much of our personal beliefs do we follow 100% of the time? I firmly believe that if we lay out clearly what we believe and then live by that belief in action and deed, others do not have room to put off on us their beliefs. Because _their_ beliefs do not matter or impact _our_ beliefs. I have been quoted as saying, "It flies in the face of common sense to argue with those who have a deep and abiding faith. That faith will make them as blind as our faith makes us. What we can hope for, is that we push a belief and action of tolerance while upholding everyone's right to faith." Just a thought.

Christians are bad people from the start. And yes they are totally Hippocrates. However, Christians are a lot like us. (Not in personality becuase we are much better than them) But the ways the practice their religion are based upon the ways we do witchcraft.

I think it's a bit unfair to say that "Christians are bad people" Some are and some arent. I've met bad Wiccans too. Be more careful with your generalizations. People are people. Some bad, some good. There are no religions that have all good people in them just as there are no religions that are all inherently bad.

I guess if all Christians are bad. Then all Muslims wanted the Twin Towers to burn and all Jews are money grubbing spinsters.

The moment we condemn and deny a group to their beliefs based on the actions of a few, we open our beliefs to be denied to us.

I think that as people not of the Christian path, we should know that calling someone a horrible person based solely off of their religion is a bad thing.

I have some Christian friends who are very accepting of me being pagan in belief. In fact, one of my best friends in the whole world is Christian and she's the one of the nicest people I've ever met. You almost can't be around her and not smile. :)

As Marcassa1 stated, we don't always follow our beliefs 100%. There is good and bad in absolutely everything. The point is now, should we try and be more understanding of other religions so that we can get along better? Yes, I think we should. I know of some Christians on this site who want to learn of the miracles their God has promised to teach them and they are intimidated to speak up about their religion for the same reason most of us Magick folk are afraid to say that we are Magick practitioners in the real world.

Execuse me Marcassa1 but u said about muslims and towers, jews and money!
The christians, muslims, jews all of them are nice people. I can't say they are bad because of their religions.
I've got a christian and two muslims friends. They present what friendship means, me and they respect all the religions and even if they are wrong.
All the people are free, they choose whatever they like, and they don't make us to do what they like.
Am i wrong?

Sorry that my sarcasm doesn't carry. I was making a point that if Christians are _all_ bad then every generalization made about every other religious group must also be true, which of course, it isn't.

My point was that as we generalize other groups we risk being generalized ourselves. So we should be careful making generalizations about all groups.

I do not think that any of the generalizations are true, for the record.
