My good friend at work, who very well knows I'm a christian, getting to know me he's like "So being a christian and you despise homosexuals.." I'm like woah woah! What? I had to explain to him about judgements on others (speaking on my own behalf and that I cant speak for others) but I can see how God can use that to help them see passed the misconceptions! Lol

My Mom got that from a family friend as well when he learned she was a Christian. "So does this mean you hate gay people? :( " Oh how the media and such has influenced people...

Yeah for sure, also some christians don't do themselves any favours either by the way they act. :P
 
The average person you come across on a day-to-day basis...they do make me smile. Typical comments from them:
1. She/he is "religious". What they mean by this of course is that the person they are referring to is a Christian. I then explain that Christians on the whole don't like being called "religious" because to them religion is just a set of rules. Not meaning to offend any Roman Catholics who may be reading this but this TO ME this is what the Roman Catholic church is all about - rules.
Oh yes and 2. When you say you aren't going to church one week - yes just one week they say "oh you will never be forgiven for that" LOL and I explain that again rules do not apply and there is nowhere in the bible that says one has to go to church in order to be saved.
There are many more examples of the way Mr/Ms secular thinks so I thought I'd start a thread and you can add your experiences of the way they think.

So, over to you...

Christianity is as much a religion as any other, and without any verifiable evidence to back it up. It has some good points and others which are bad!

Not considering the actions of people misapplying things...what are some bad points about Christianity?
