Ten signs of a fanaic Christian

10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.

9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.

8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.

7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including women, children, and trees!

6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.

5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.


4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffer

4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving."

3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may be all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity.

2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.

1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible,
Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christian.

Mr. Bhimsen...so now u accept that these guys are converting by "brainwashing tactics". Till now ur standard version was "forced conversion". Please make up ur mind...I guess the likes of you just cant stand someone deserting ur faith to become a christian...grow up buddy, this is a free country. every citizen has a right to chose and propogate his religion. Just beacuse fantatics like you, we are not gonna give up this right...

>>>Till now ur standard version was "forced conversion.....are we living in a banana republic for any one to convert anybody else by force? Yes such things also took place in our Country.....search for Goan inquistion......just one sentecne in the Bible, "thou shall not suffer a witch" resulted in burning alive hundreds of thousands of women across Europe. Haveyou heard of Spanish Inquistion? Europe progressed only after separation of State from the Churches. Till the Churches were in control of the affairs of the State, they had committed all sorts of atrocities on the Citizens (and they were Christians!!!!!)
