Listen people, there is no objective way to prove or disprove God's existence.

It is from a PERSONAL seeking of God that you find Him.

There ARE people who have genuinely never had any sort of religious experience, and view Christianity, and any religion, as foolishness.

And yes, there are those calling themselves Christians who, either willfully or unintentionally, misinterpret or confuse the scriptures. These are the people on the sidewalks screaming at people that they will burn in Hell. Those morons are what everyone sees, and thinks, "Whoa, THAT'S what a Christian is? There's no WAY I want to be like that guy."

Being a Christian simply means this: Christ-like. Being like Christ. Christ didn't rant and rave and yell at people, he healed them and ministered to them.

Try not to pay much attention to those false, so-called Christians who injure the name of Christ with their hateful actions. The Bible says to not associate with them or even eat with them.

If you insult my religion, will I cut your head off like a Muslim? No. You can mock my faith and insult me for it, I will not harm you. That is Christ-like. He didn't smite his executioners or call down a curse upon him when they tortured him and nailed him to the cross. On the contrary, he prayed for them. He died for them.

So, a real Christian will not be full of vitriol and intolerance, but mercy, love, and grace.

You are to love your neighbor as yourself.
