Is there anyone here NOT christian> o_O;

[Blossom Goth]

I have my days where I range from innocent religious girl to doubtful agnostic rebel.

I'd never call myself Christian though. On those days I feel all "religious" and everything, I just say I believe in God.

But really, we have no actual evidence that such a God exists.

The thing is that I believe that it's possible for one to exist. Nothing's impossible.

I'm not a christian. I'm... nothing really. i don't know what I believe in.

not to sound as if I'm "oh so gawth"
but no, I'm not, and yes, I detest christianity.
I hate the concept, the vile 'deity' if you could even call it that.
christianity is comprised of ideas stolen from old pagan religions.
In an old norse poem, for Odin, there are verses about a man suspended from a tree, with a spear piercing his side.

boom, what happened to jebus in the bible?

While we all have our own opinions and beliefs, I ask that you not be so inflammatory. This forum supports religious toleration, and we ask that all our members do so as well. Your statements, while they can be interpretted as true, are using hyperbole to make Christianity sound "wrong" or "evil".

And (while we believe in free expression) suggesting Christianity is "evil" is blatant intolerance.

Baptised Catholic but never gone to church or any of that scary stuff.

Definately Pagan. I don't believe in all that Jesus stuff. I'll stick with the beliefs and religion of ancient civilizations.

Also new at Wicca.

Born Catholic christian but turned out to be Atheist, and quite proud of it. ^^,  

[[X]igbar]

I'm gonna quote Chris Rock from one of my favorite movies Dogma - "Having a belief is easy to change, but building a religion on it is tricky because, you can change an belief easily, but you can't change a religion."

I have nothing against it's principles, but some stuff I find really messed up. (the judging for instance) Or the way some christian impose their religious beliefs onto yours - I think that's real f'ed up! sweatdrop

I believe in Greek Gods btw.

Don't worry. No one's going to flame you. whee

I have one question though. Is there, like, anything specific about it that makes you hate Christianity?

Other stuffs:

A.) The "God Hates Goths" things are fake. They're satire.

B.) It agitates me when people automatically relate Goth to Satanism because being Goth has nothing to do with religion in the first place. I'd like to be able to listen to my music, and openly admit that I can be considered Goth without someone telling me that I worship Satan, when I'm Catholic. (Which is odd, though. Isn't it true that Satanism has nothing to do with Satan at all?)

C.) Any Christian who tells you that you're going to hell is an idiot. Apparently they missed the basic teaching of, "Only God can judge." Honestly, they're best to be ignored, in my opinion.

D.) They're also just stories that you've heard. I'm not saying that they're lying; some people are like that, but it's not like our whole country is "LOL PEACE B WIT U!!!1" Actually, the majority of teenagers are either Atheist, Agnostic, or Satanist.

I completely agree with your point. Not all goths are satanists. I am goth and a proud Christian, and I see people almost every day who say they're Christian and look it, but truthfully are a horrible example of one to everyone else by their attitude.
(no offense to Rap lovers, but almost every single Rapper out there who proclaim they're Christians, but rap about shooting that MoFo, smacking that b***h, ******** those hoes wherever, or even smoking that weed, tend to be one of them, obviously. Don't try to prove me wrong, I've heard the popular rappers and some underground ones too, they rap about those things mostly, just in different context. I actually tend to tolerate the old rap where there wasn't so much vulgar in it compared to the Rappers now.)

While I'm rambling about music, *deep exhale* it's actually funny & sad, there's a larger percentage of Christian death metal bands than there are true Christian Rappers.
I tend to look at lyrics alot. sweatdrop

It's fine. So long as you realise why, there's no problem. As said, we support both free speech and religious toleration. In that, while you are free to express your opinions, we ask that you do it in a non-inflammatory and respectful way.

I do completely understand what you're saying, and I usually am one for toleration, and its rare you'll see me flame anyone(thing).Not sure what came over me, but as I said, I'm deeply sorry to anyone I may have offended.(And I rarely apologize for anything.)

Society has always been such. It is nothing new, really.

I am also having an increasingly difficult time tolerating Christianity. I understand that everyone has the right to their own beliefs, but please, stop pushing them onto me or telling me I'm going to Hell unless I go along with your thoughts. It's annoying, and if anything, I would think that would push more people away than reel them in. I haven't noticed any other religions that do that. And as a child when I was forced to go to Sunday school I was always confused by certain things I was taught. I got yelled at and called something along the lines of "Satan's child" by pastors just for asking innocent questions like,"What about dinosaurs?" I wasn't trying to start s**t, I was 6 years old, it was just a question. I dunno. I could go on about this forever I suppose, but there's no point in that really. I just can't bring myself to believe in it or love it in any way.
