Is it normal that i just kind of hate christianity?

I don't mean to offend anyone by this, but just the whole idea of it annoys me as an atheist. I heard that one Christian group killed a 4-year-old out of fear that he was homosexual. And what's this whole idea that homosexual people are possessed by the devil anyway?

That's just the kind of prejudice that the church apparently discourages people from making. The church hates other things as well, like sex out of marriage for any other purpose other than having children, which is a NATURAL HUMAN PROCESS in you didn't realise.

And they're obviously hypocrites. In the bible, you can read about incest, domestic violence, a ton of other things that are "immoral" and to top it all off is a concept of eternal hell to keep terrified souls in check.

There's the christian political party as well, which really pisses me off. Among other things, it wants to ban abortion (as horrible as it sounds, I am a pro-abortionist (but only in situations where it would be worse to let the baby live)), make all schools christian and pray every morning and indoctrinate (brainwash in other words) kids from an early age - so bang goes individuality, and have public campaigns to discourage homosexuality, which is just horrible.

In fact, I read another article on here where a homosexual man who really needed it was forcibly dragged away by the donor's parents just because he was homosexual and "possessed by the devil". And then he died because he couldn't find a donor in time.

So, in three words - homophobic brainwashing hypocrites!

P.S. Really hope I didn't offend anyone.

    I didn't know how to vote, so I voted yes because I partially agree with you. The type of "christians" that you described are not really Christians, but cultists hiding under the banner of the Bible. The people you described are sick, twisted, and they are to Christianity what terrorists are to Islam.

    I fully support Christians, and feel that they are a good group of morally sound people. They are banding together, just like any religion, to worship what they believe in and protect their immortal soul. Real Christians have nothing to do with these activities.

    I'm not defending Christianity any more than any other religion, as I am agnostic. I just believe that you cannot judge any one group by the idiots and extremists hiding within that group.

    You shouldn't blame a whole religion because of some of these people. Those people's actions are actually considered sinful by Christian standards ("Thall shall not kill")

    as a christian, i've encountered a lot of christians who are mean hearted to people that aren't christian or even those that just aren't as christian as they are. i can see where you are coming from with hating christians, but don't hate an entire religion because of some of the fools who associate themselves with it.

    i agree with you thow I feel the same way for the other main relligions. islam discriminates women,and homosexuality
    even if the koran dosen't (un like the bible) say against it. strict judaism is famous for having, aswell as the usual monotheistic rules, very unusual rules like wearing clothes of different materials and not beeing alloude to do many forms of activity on saturdays (the oddest one is that one can't push a wheelchair or a pram, i have no idea how parents of handicap children manage. don't get me started on mormons and scientology.
    but I must agree on -Dad- and say that hate is a strong word,(lots of my friends are ither christian or muslim even thow they know I'm an atheist) but I too am ofthen horrifide and disgusted by some of there belifes, others I simply find them funny.

    Very normal to hate this pathetic belief.

    I also hope that you hate believers in the prophet Allah, with their more crazy ideas and cruel practices (mainly to young girls and ALL women)

    Hate although is a strong word.
    Lets just say you feel a lot of shame towards them.
    You're not angry just disgusted in this pathetic fairy tale belief.

    Yes, I agree.

        Thanks theaverageatheist, I've actually done that my whole life its irritating.
        Yes I do know, I just keep getting that mixed up. I'll blame the hypocrisy contradiction of religious beliefs that keep confusing me. (and confusing everyone else in the whole damn world).

        Yes I meant the crazy prophet Muhammad and his idiotic god Allah, which Christians say is very similar (if not the same) as their own god, of which I agree.

    I wouldn't say this kind of behaviour is restricted to christianity.

    Not all Christians do that in fact most people have evolved past those things. Anyone who has not by this day and age is a savage. I have never heard of any modern day hangings of gay people. It sounds like you must live in a awful area if you keep seeing this type of thing. Not all kids go to Christian school by the way. There is multiple ways of preventing a child as well. How lazy is it for someone to not use any of them and expect nothing to happen?

    I don't kind of hate Christianity. I ABSOLUTELY hate it. If there is one cult that's even worse than Islam it's Christianity.

    Absolutely. What really sickens me is that religions get so much special treatment. By all means, let people have crackpot ideas, but for fuck's sake don't give them handouts and charitable status just because they claim there's a man in the sky backing them up.

    If one grown man has an imaginary friend, he's insane. If a thousand have an imaginary friend, not only are they considered perfectly normalm but they don't have to pay tax to keep themselves running, they're allowed to impose their beliefs upon everyone else, entire legal systems are formed around them, and any significant action against them is a hate crime.

    Sure, there are plenty of individuals who, while totally deluded, are good people. But religion as a whole sickens me.

    Oh, and did I mention how christianity seems to think it's ok to kill and rape thousands of innocent people in the name of an invisible man in the sky? Or that islam says all non-muslims should be enslaved or killed?

    Sorry if this is ranty, I didn't mean to go on like this, but it's pretty relevant so I'll post it anyway. Fuck religion.

    (edit: also, the more recent attacks on completely natural human behaviour are pathetic and should be serious crimes. Homosexuality in particular, but a bunch of other things too.)
