I'm a Christian - deal with it

[skatekwondo]

Christianity is the world's most hated spiritual belief system. Notice how I did NOT call it a religion? Religion is man-made, for man's corrupt goals and benefit. Christianity is a spiritual belief system - Christ was born, died for our sins, and rose from the dead so that we may have eternal life with God. It's what I believe

Preach it, sista! I know exactly how you feel. Only I've pretty much said screw it to anyone who tries to impose on me, or claims I'm imposing on them. I'm not one to be pushed around and I don't care if you feel I'm pressing my beliefs on you. It's a free country and technically I'm allowed to do that as well. America is way too "sensitive" trying to appeal to everyone's feelings and not hurt them with words. Oh, God forbid I say something that you don't like. Try living in the real world. Carry on a conversation with someone in China and we'll see where your sensitivity lessons go from there.

...okay, stepping off my soap box now.

I know, huh! A typical American wouldn't last 2 seconds in China. Americans are emotionally weak. For the past 30 years "tolerance" training has turned children into sissified adults. It's disgusting. I'm not going to stop saying God bless you, just as I hope people of other religions don't stop practicing their beliefs. We can all live in harmony with one another. If someone feels I'm pushing my Christian beliefs on them, well then they're pushing their non-Christians beliefs on me - it works both ways.

Thank you for posting the difference between belief and religion. Unfortunately, there are many people that can't seem to make that distinction. Most of my life, I lived in a town where people went up and down the streets saying what good Christians they are in one breath and throwing racial and religious slurs in the next. It's too bad that religious zealots and the nutcase religious right have ruined any kind of real tolerance for any type of religion. (Try saying that three times fast
