Yeah, but when you are "in the right" you can do whatever you want and find a Biblical quote to back it up!

Well, then I wonder about their faith, but it is not my job to judge. People can accuse me of not being a Christian if they want, look at Martin Luther, or any other Christian that did what was right instead of what the Church said to do. If you want to see the real Christianity then ignore what people say and read was Jesus said. Christians don't realize that going around condeming people to hell is not going to bring them any closer to God. And I'm really tired of people blasting homosexuals. I myself believe that it is wrong, but like I said I'm not one to judge. Homosexuals are no more sinners than a heterosexual. I'm also tired of people telling me "marijuana is bad because it harms the temple," when they themselves are 50lbs overweight from eating fast food. I guess I better stop before this becomes an all out rant.

check out this sickening site:
http://www.godhatesfags.com/main/faq.html
look at #30 -What do you think of the Religious Right? ... the Problem isn't just with different religions, it exists even within the same religion. people interpret the bible differently and get upset when others don't see it the way THEY interpret it. there's really no use talking about "true" christians, because they're ALL convinced that they are the true christians 
maybe the problem isn't religion at all maybe the real problem is certitude...

I don't care what anyone says, you all have your own religion whether you think so or not.

Well, if that is the standard for real Christianity, then I think the Nietzche quote I once posted here applies pretty well:
"There was only one true Christian, and he died on the cross."

We all have our own ideas. The problem is ideas which exclude other ideas based on blind faith.

Or the people following the religion. Do we judge all Muslims because of what a few do? Those people who crash into buildings, etc really think they are doing the right thing. It is because they are taught a perverted view of their faith, and do not question what the leaders say. It is important to ask questions! But remember, not everyone may have the answer you want to hear. Some might tell you what you want to know, some might tell you what they think you should know, some might tell you what you need to know, some might not know themselves...

I hear what you're saying,
It is because they are taught a perverted view of their faith
but I happen to believe that religion itself is a perversion of faith
