You know, I try to ignore you...but you keep persisting. I know this doesn't speak for every christian here, but most of the christians that live by me are always trying to convert me. I don't mind you guys, so much as you leave me the hell alone. Quit telling people they NEED god, you'll go to HELL without god.

Digital, I know you'll be posting in here faster than flies on shit. But please don't post a ten page rant, cause I'm not going to read it. But can you throw some imput on why christians keep pressing and pressing? Is it something they tell you, or just an anoying trait?

Although their motivations for converting may vary from guilt, to it being commanded in the bible, you can't stop Christians from witnessing.

If I were you, I'd follow this rule (It's been posted here many a time)

When walking in open territory, bother no one. If someone bothers you, ask him to stop. If he does not stop, destroy him.

If you've asked them to stop,just start freakin' out and make it known that you don't appreciate it.

Be like "satan loves you! satan love you! He really does! Fuck jesus! It's all about satan! If you convert now, your guaranteed a spot in hell! Come with me to my sacred temple where I shall pour sheeps blood on your head." And maybe even break out some freaky chant. That should piss them off.

Shop smart, shop "S" Mart.

yeah christians sure suck (i should know.i am one).

easiest way to shut them up (besides a right cross!) is to know more about the bible and its origins than they do.

which ain't hard as most christians ignorance of the bible is impressive.

read a couple of good books http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0679744061/103-8252623-6124632 or anything by this bloke http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1852308362/103-8252623-6124632 .

with just the information in those 2 books you'll know more than the average jesus fanboi about his scripture.

ASH - Do you think I was going to reply because you were making a jab at Christians ?

I'm replying because you asked me a question specifically.

Anyway, I will answer you this way: if you thought that your buddy was going somewhere unpleasant simply because they didn't believe in something specific, don't you think YOU would try to help them believe in it ?

Take God, Jesus, and religion out of the equation. Helping others out of their dire situations is something that mankind has been doing since the dawn of time.

What should be considered amazing is a "true" Christians capacity to desire to help people that they don't even know.

That's God.

The same could be said about a guy trying to help his christian friend realize there is no god nor heaven nor hell. So that the friend doesn't waste his life living a lie.

Except for the tons of hate towards people of Islamic faith, gays, and non-whites.

Yeah, this is a generalization that doesn't apply to every Christian, but a good deal, yeah.

Except the Christian hopes to help the other person gain eternal happiness.

The person who believes in nothing that tries to change a Christians mind does not hope for anything "good" to come out of it. They hope to not be ALONE in the way they think.

Difference between being self-serving, and a philanthropist.

For me to hate anyone would be anti-Christian.

Learn something about the religion, so that you can better identify how "Christians" ought to behave. You make ignorant opinions, and they don't help you at all.

I hate the sin...and that includes my own. Sexuality immorality is a sin...whether it is exhibited by a homosexual, or a Christian doesn't really matter.
