Top Ten Signs That You Are A Christian. by cyrexx: 7:09pm On Jan 22, 2013
1 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of Gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.

2 - You feel insulted and"dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.

3 - You laugh at polytheists (those who believe in many Gods), but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.

4 - You feel disgust when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women, children, and trees!

5 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that worships humans as avatars, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.

6 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established facts, e.g. age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.

7 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most"tolerant" and "loving."

8 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some crazy people rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to "prove"Christianity.

9 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.

10 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a christian.

1. Wrong. Outraged is not the right word to use.
2. Wrong. I don't feel any.
3. Wrong. 'Laugh' is also not the right expression.
4. What is in an attribute to begin with?
5. Wrong. 'Laugh' again?
6. This one is completely wrong. As a christain, I don't look for loopholes in science, but in my study of the sciences, I meet loopholes. They are two different things.
7. That's not what I belief. The word 'entire' without any reference , is utterly wrong.
8. How do you mean exactly?
9. And these statistics are from?
10. Lol. Anybody can know the bible, but not everyone can practise its teachings on being christain.

So you actually think Christians know a lot less than many atheists about the Bible &c? I believe you flatter yourself. You know nothing about God's purposes. And yes, unless you believe that Jesus is He, you will die.

Yup.. I agree with him.. So many xtians don't even know about the crimes against humanity their 'all loving god' commited in the bible. all they know is what their pastors preach in church.

Another comedian,
Another threat.
Cyrexx forgot to mention constant threats to life.

You mean that you have realized that anything that has life must also die? Death is the natural order of things, it is not a punishment.
Besides, what makes you think that to die is a bad thing, considering that Jesus, who supposedly died and came back to life, did not have negative complaints about it?.

In your mind. I know the constitution of an organization, but I don't keep nor value them. Does that make one more enlightened than the adherents?

At least you sound more coherent these days. Guess the English lessons are paying off. Why are you so hot under the collar about a simple statement of fact. Certainly you will all die. It's your guilt-ridden conscience that sees that as a threat.

I'm an ex-christian atheist and you're a christian.


That is enough proof that I know the bible more than you. If you have properly read the bible, you would know that the christian God can not exist without serious contradictions/paradoxes.

Getting a tad emotional and losing it, aren't you? I thought atheists were supposed to be the paradigm and perfection of the evolutionary process. . .the acme of empirical reasoning and thus not so easily baited and emotionally manipulated.

The hypocrisy of it all. All atheists are fools but you're on an atheist's website? You must truly be a bigger fool- addicted to a product of a fool.

Sly mofo... grin to what purpose are you diverting from the issue.. did Jesus not Study Scripture from a young age till adulthood.. all you sly foxes among the sheeple.. God go catch una one day grin grin grin

Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

2 Peter 1:5 For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge,
^^
Why Majority of Christians fail to see Reason when their very Bible tells them to .. I wonder

Psalm 119:105 Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

Matthew 4:4 But he answered, "It is written, “‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God."

Joshua 1:8 This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

1 Timothy 4:13 Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation, to teaching.

rather than honestly answer a question, you ask another question to invalidate the reason for the first question. @OP's point 10 is relevant to Modern Christianity.. Most Christian Folks don't just Study their Bibles anymore. and you ask if it is a criteria for making Heaven. now why would a Christian ask such a mute question? unless they are just being sly
