Description Because some people seem to think they're synonymous.

DON'T JUDGE MY BELIEFS BEFORE YOU KNOW ME.

Anyway my faith is probably the only thing i will ever get truly riled up about. Because as much as people may disbelieve it God means everything to me, i wouldn't be who i am without him. And just because i am labeled as a 'christian' i am not a homophone, i don't believe God's love is exclusive and i don't think everyone is going to hell.

So as much as people say, 'not all Muslims are terrorists' (TRUE) remember not all Christians are jerks, don't judge someone on what they believe before you find out what they actually believe. It may be quite different from the stereotypical view you may have. Most Christians are amazing wonderful generous people. And a lot of other people are too. God loves everyone



Also i felt it appropriate to quote a reply i wrote down the page, for anyone whose dropped in. I thought it was relevant to further flesh out my reasoning behind the stamp to avoid conflict, as is my main goal in life A disclaimer if you will, how cheap am i? Disclaiming my own opinions Anyway...



DeadMansTouch wrote - This message goes both ways you know. Just because someone isn't a christian doesn't mean they're jerks.

Namakox wrote - Indeed you are correct, and i get where you are coming from. Forming an opinion of someone by saying "your not christian, so you must be a God hating jerk" is incredibly hypocritical and stupid. However that was most definitely not my intention, i am not directing this at every/any person who doesn't believe in my God, nor assuming that this is what most people think, it is merely a general idea/opinion that builds on the other ideas people have had about other sub groups in the world. An idea that says, "Hey, you wouldn't assume all Gays have HIV so why would you assume all Christians are bible pushing morons?"
If i based an opinion on someone because they said i was a jerk purely because of my faith. My opinion of them would not be formed on the basis of their religion, colour, sexuality or otherwise. It would be because they neglected to try and hear or understand my views before forming their opinion of me. A basis of ones actions rather than a bias.
Personally I form my opinions based on what i actually know or see in a person as opposed to pre determined assumptions, like researching before writing a book (although that sounds terribly clinical ) And if someone was that biased i admit i would most definitely not think very highly of them, i am a human and i get as defensive about my beliefs as any other human. However i would try to reason with them and try to understand why they felt that way.
Anyway i tend to rant about this stuff so forgive me for that and like i said i understand your meaning but rest assured this stamp is not any kind of finality, it's just something to keep in mind.

That's all

Nama

I just watched that video. Whole thing. And I have 1 thing to say:

You are such a cherry picker, you know that? I bet at the guy in that video is either you, or a friend of yours, though I'm probably wrong. You cannot interpret all Christians to be like this. That is like seeing one black guy do this, and assuming they all do that.

You, sir, are among the most repulsive people I have ever seen. You know what? Just get the fuck outta here! Understand, little boy? Get the fuck off the Internet if you hate religious people so much! Oh, and if that's you or your friend in that video, well good luck with getting a girlfriend. I don't see that guy getting anyone. So just get off the Internet, ok son? Why are you even bothering with me? Do you not have anything important to do? Get the fuck out of here, you thoughtless child!

No, I do not have anything more important to do as I am waiting for MY GIRLFRIEND to call me. (By the way, the guy in the video is a very popular youtuber and also has a girlfriend...) I do not think all Christians are like the cartoon one in the video or like the bad rapping christian who the video is directed at, but I know you are. I'm repulsive? Coming from a gay-hating super-christian troll? I do not hate religious people, I hate people who shove it down your throat and who hate people for things they are born with and cannot control. And If I'm thoughtless then how come I do research on topics unlike you, who spews hate speech at people whom he doesn't know anything about?Β

That is just stupid, we all have our freedom and choose to believe in what we want and to do. As I said, I am Christian but if I see someone of another religion I don't run at him or her and tell that he/she will reach in hell and should converge to Christianity, no I would never do that, I respect people and in what they believe and I find others quite fascinating with all there mythos and legends. So I really don't understand these people. Be with your religion and let others alone.

I will also stay away as possible as I can from them, not because of the religion, but of how they consider it to be practiced and in my opinion, you better be religious, but keep it to yourself and don't let others influence you.

Deuteronomy 1:17

You shall not be partial in judgment.
You shall hear the small and the great alike.
You shall not be intimidated by anyone, for the
judgement is God's. And the case that is too hard
for you, you shall bring to me, and I will hear it.

I like this one. I have long thought that it's not up to me to judge anyone, since I do have many faults myself. I've been Christian all my life but are yet very young when it comes to reading the Bible. Mostly used the exuse that I get exhausted more than ordinary when reading or hear too much at once, it's just.. and for lack of words "an error" with my brain I was born with. But finally I have been able to pick up my Bible instead of just listen to others read it, and I read this part today.

I do agree with this post a lot. As most people I would not like to be judged myself, therefore I try my best not to judge others. This way of thinking is the reason that I met kind and interesting people from Christian, Muslim, Atheists, gay culture and other countries, may have forgotten someone.

we humans should stop label entire groups of people negativly. It only brings more hate then good, and it makes it harder for us all to get to know each other.
