Bro i have gone through your first 3 points and I can see everything is centered on fear, but is this only peculiar to Christianity? or religion in general? Why the stereotype? and why your deliberate attack on Christianity?

YES, most Christians believe in
God out of fear. And that starts when they are children.
When a child is taken to church and told that he/she will burn
eternally in the fiery pits of hell unless they follow the rules
of the Bible and God's word, that instills fear.
I think believing in God is founded on the simple concept of
fear of the Devil, and Hell.

Lolzz..being an atheist is like denying the existence of ur parents, dat they didn't give birth to u so u exist by yourself, all because ur parents died before u came of age!...Blind mentality, they think they are wise!..they believe science and say science has more satisfactory explanation, but science itself is not complete! Humans invented science but God invented humans!..will I believe the creation(Man- science) or the Creator(God)..tongue

But u not telling me how u know they believe in God cuz of fear. U claiming they do. I could easily just claim most christians believe in God becuz God is love according to the bible.

Hell is a deterrent and deterrents are meant to discourage you from going astray .

I have also gone through points 4 to 8 and i can see they are baseless and very unfair/irrational of you to have attributed them to Christianity alone, rather it should be religion in general.
I think you should change the title of your topic to " 20 reasons to abandon religion" i think that would be more accurate, because your first 8 points are not peculiar to Christianity alone.

Christianity is based on love.
Is the love unconditional?

Christianity is the grass eating religion(South Africa), and the toilet water drinking belief(India)!!!
Re: 20 Reasons To Abandon Christianity by truthman2012(m): 1:29pm On Jul 09, 2016
Sirmuel1:
1. Christianity is based on fear

While today there
are liberal clergy who preach a gospel of love, they
ignore the bulk of Christian teachings, not to mention
the bulk of Christian history. Throughout almost its
entire time on Earth, the motor driving Christianity
has been—in addition to the fear of death—fear of
the devil and fear of hell. One can only imagine how
potent these threats seemed prior to the rise of
science and rational thinking, which have largely
robbed these bogeys of their power to inspire terror.
But even today, the existence of the devil and hell are
cardinal doctrinal tenets of almost all Christian
creeds, and many fundamentalist preachers still
openly resort to terrorizing their followers with lurid,
sadistic portraits of the suffering of nonbelievers
after death. This is not an attempt to convince
through logic and reason; it is not an attempt to
appeal to the better nature of individuals; rather, it is
an attempt to whip the flock into line through threats,
through appeals to a base part of human nature—
fear and cowardice.

Because you cannot meet with the standard of God, you are looking for people to be in your shoes.
