I suggest you take classes in a Religious Studies department covering the rise of Christianity and its spread throughout the continents. Public university, of course. (If you catch on why. Haha.)



This way you will learn all of the common misconceptions and come to believe that the point of view most widely accepted must be true.

That last reply was a grand example of ignorance and those who are so blinded they are too afraid to be challenged by others' beliefs, nor do they do anything but make excuses.

My ass do my professors even present the most widely-accepted "conceptions." But hey, you must not be in a good place to know what sort of generalization you just made of higher education.

And you know this how? Have you done personal studies on religion or asked those who practice religion?

To believe that Christ died for our sins is to conform since more people in America believe that than don't.


Sure many people claim to be Christians but statistically over 50% of them don't believe in the fundamentals of Christianity. Besides if more Americans believed then didn't there wouldn't be so much corruption. Its one thing to say you believe and another to act like you believe it. This is what faith is all about.

Christians are not a majority and never will be on earth.

Christianity is largely mistaken for people who go to church every Sunday. But even amongst those people you will find that a lot do not believe they just go based on superstition.

Those statistics include religions that don't even agree on who Jesus is. You might as well say all white people are Christians.

Minor differences aside


Do you have any idea what you are talking about? There are major fundamental differences. I'm not talking about denomination I mean totally different religions.

What is this, selective replying?
It's exactly like these assholes who interpret these "Holy Books" - instead of reading the entire passage, they read one verse and distort the entire thing to mean something else.

Nice one ethereal, your habits of argument and belief come off beautifully in your responses.
