Why do atheists on YA try to isolate Christians?

With a whole world of Polytheists and Monotheists to choose from, why don't we ask questions of Muslims, Jews, Sikhs, etc. who believe that theirs is the one true faith?

    Well, being reasonable, one would point-out, Y/A is based in the States where the predominate religious base is Christianity, as well as the predominate contributor being American.

    So, "Religion" is assumed to be Christianity, very often here.

    However.

    ,

    One thing an atheist does hate with a great passion, the truth of Gods Word (Jesus Christ) observable in action.

    Christians,

    (ie; individuals whom exemplify the teaching of Jesus Christ *only.)

    is the light of to the world, atheists hate anything that causes their Self-absorbed, Selfish Prideful delusion to become recognizable for what it is; obviously flawed.

    Unlike the other Abrahamic religions, Christians where commissioned to spread the word of God's son Jesus Christ, the3 great message of Salvation through God's son the Messiah, the Redeemer, the Deliverer, the Mercy-bringer which is Forgiveness from Grace.

    The mention of these Godly characteristics, feels like holy water/"acid" on a vampire, to the atheist..

    Rebellion, is the reason atheists need such pier enablement.

    Evidence for God is real, if you follow the instructions.

    Humble-Desire, Effort,(Action) Humble-Maturity, (being willing to subjugate oneself to being the lesser, the one who seeks understanding, because of a recognized lack of it.)

    These characteristics, are those that open the door to 1.Knowledge, 2. Understanding.

    Some evidence is unavailable by text or peer-review, some evidence is only experienced on an individual level.

    Personal experience and understanding is the only way to success, so too, personal experience and a desire to understand from humility, is the Only way to find evidence for God.

    It's an individual thing, no one can have "personal experiences for another.

    How to find completeness and contentment *and know God and his son Jesus Christ, is real without a doubt:

    The Instructions:

    Dan 10:12

    Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.

    Chronicles 7:14

    if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

    .Action:

    Be Humble.

    Pray

    Seek

    Turn

    The promise for those who do, is God's revealing Spirit.

    This site is mostly frequented by Americans which are mostly Christian for one. For two, I think most are scared to be labeled anti-semetic if they attack Jews, they way they do Christians. I think 2 is real prevalent given the constant use of the OT in attacks on Christians specifically. I also think #2 is jsut mental cowardice. If you don't agree with the OT, have the cajones to call out the Jews as well.

    Bulldog,

    1.) There is no "separation of powers clause of first amendment". I suggest you pick up and read the bill of rights.

    2.) We all the power to vote and the hardliner Christian right is far from a majority in this country, so your whining is stupid, just vote!

    3.) You whine like stuck pigs about gay marraige Gay marraige was not allowed in any of the atheistic countries either. In fact it Christian countries that have actually allowed it, so stop bashing Christianity or actually have some class and learn more than what your assinine atheistic sites tell you is true!

    4.) You whine like stuck pigs about and "OMG they are going to teach 5 minutes of intelligent design in school". I don't agree with teaching creationism in school either, but if your reasons for atheism are so weak that a 5 minute talk will dissuade you, then perhaps you should be dissuaded.

    Bottomline, you whine like babies about nothing. Look at history or other countries and see what real oppression is. Chrisitanity was the religion that gave the freedom you are talking about anyways. Atheistic China or Russia sure a shite did not.

    The sad thing is that everything any atheist has brought up about Christian hardliners, I have always agreed with the atheist. You want to tell me that all of Christianity should be mocked and ridiculed for it though? Sorry atheists I disagree.

    Ask you three questions and you will have the answer.

    1 I this an English language forum?

    2 Are most English speakers from Christian or post Christian cultures?

    3 Would most atheists on this site be ex Christians or from a Christian background

    Supplementary question:

    4 Have a lot of atheists had to put up with a lot more than gentle criticism on a web site when they were growing up?

    It is because Jesus Christ stated that the ONLY way into heaven was through Him. People do not like to be so restricted in their attempts to believe that they too can get to heaven no matter how wickedly they may choose to live. I am not intolerant of other people, you can choose to live any way that you want. But do not force me into supporting your lifestyle nor in recanting what I believe in. Decadence in social conduct always leads to the downfall of any civilization, always. Check the history books. So, keeping that firmly in mind, do not think that I will tolerate pornography, profanity, lewdness, slander, character assassination, immorality, or unethical behavior. Those things are to not be tolerated within any society. Because Christians become vocal in standing against these things they get attacked and persecuted by those who want to be able to do those things unrestricted by societal laws.

    They're probably angry because everything the Bible says about them is true, and the more they live by their own nature, the more they prove the Bible knows what it was talking about (personification, of course). Also, Atheists are extremely prideful, so the fact that they are grossly outnumbered in real life makes them angry, and since (for whatever reason) they are not outnumbered in this section (possible because most Christians have better things to do), they lash out.

    It's in their nature.

    Fools hate knowledge.

    Mainly Christians on here asking questions. People from other religions do ask question and get answers.

    Well speaking for myself, I don't try to pass my beliefs onto the law books. I also don't claim that my faith is the "one true faith". I claim that my faith is right for me. What your faith or lack thereof is, is NOT my business.

    Christians are louder and pushier. If more stayed out of the masses wombs and bedrooms we might have more respect for them.

    Christians occupy 78.4% of USA population. Observe that 16% is Atheist-Agnostic, so 94.4% is involved.

    We like to address to the majority!
