Why exactly shouldn't you be made to feel bad for being christian? The christian faith has brought just as much pain into this world as any other religion. I also wonder where science would be if it weren't for the church holding it back.

You should wonder where human thought would be if the early Christian church didn't burn most documents from antiquity, and the Greco-Roman mode of thinking had extended rather than being snuffed out by violent anti-intellectualism.

What about Christian monks keeping documents, books, letters, etc during the dark ages when no one else was doing so?

So we're just going to throw out the crusades and inquisition like they never happened. I guess it isn't important that the christian (especially catholic) church has been holding back science for ages. How many years did we think the earth was the center of the universe because that's what the pope decided was best for the church? Evolution? No way.

One of the worst, most closed-minded, ignorant remarks i've heard in a while. why shouldn't you be made to feel bad for wearing nikes when they are made in a sweatshop by drastically underpaid and overworked kids. Why shouldn't you be made to feel bad for being muslim when only a few radical muslims were behind the 9/11 attacks. this argument applies to anything.

not every christian goes around forcing their beliefs on others. the christians people remember and post about on a message board though are the radical, in your face type, which ends up giving all christians a bad name.

i mean i'm just saying i think christians, regardless of how oppressive they've been in the past, get a bad rap, especially from the athiest community. i could care less what religion, if any, someone chooses to follow... doesn't matter. it seems though that a lot of people, including some on this message board, were raised in a typical christian household and somewhere along the line felt like it wasn't for them for whatever reason, and can't understand why in the world anyone would just sheepishly follow an outdated religion that was force-fed to them by their parents. so they think that every christian they run into is a pamphlet-passing jesus freak trying to re-cram this shit down their throats. you following me camera guy?

no, I don't think they get a bad rap at all, considering the legislation of morality we're still suffering at the hands of the religious right

^^^^ I don't make threads on my own time bashing christians. A question was asked and I answered it. Most christians think their religion is perfect and flawless and nothing bad has ever come of their religion. Believe what you want in your own head, I don't give a flying fuck. The only time I care about what you believe is when you start trying to form the world based off of your religion.

no doubt there's still right-wing fundies trying to force their morality on others, but my original point was that not every christian is out there judging people, forcing beliefs on others, etc... in no way am i saying that all christians are good people.

not every atheist is either. I'm just saying don't be expected to be treated like saints when you have plenty of sin in your history.

only sheltered dumb asses believe that followers of christianity have caused no harm in this world. I'm just saying don't knock the religion, knock the people who abusively use it for personal gain.
