Do you ever feel sorry for Christians?
I do feel a little sorry for the millions of children of Christian parents, as these children receive a fictional view of the world in their major developmental years.
But sympathy is hard to find for the adults as there comes a time when they should be able to think for themselves and they choose not to.
Thanks

I do because they wouldn't know what is right or wrong if it wasn't for the bible.

Are you an idiot? Yes, I feel sorry for the Christians who are in churches that teach us to remain in our sins. But you're begging the question, pard. Prove that all Christians have a fictional view of the world, and your statement might even become intelligent. You also beg the question when you pretend that we don't think for ourselves. Some of us do.

Now I feel sorry for you, because you seem to imagine that everyone who thinks for himself would have to agree with you. That's hardly an adult attitude!

Odd though, that the "fictional view" they receive enables them to avoid many of the difficulties and tragedies that affect those who are ignorant of God. And the fact that they grow up to play prominent roles in every area of human knowledge strongly suggests that they are quite adept at thinking for themselves.

No, actually, I feel sorry for people like you.

Rather the arrogance and presumed superiority of the judgemental is something to feel sorry for.

I don't suppose that Muslims, Jews or Hindus are very different in this rather distorted concept. Or indeed atheists.
You seem to think that all Christians are the same! As you grow older I expect you will learn to accept that everyone is to be respected (if not all behaviour of course!)

Yes I do, all of the time.
Christians only know what they 'want' to know.
The Problem: They have never been right.

No, i don't. But i feel sorry for you, because you're asserting something is fictional but have no evidence for that, and the fact that billions of people believe in God and only a handful few million are atheist must terrify you, leading to God and Christians living rent-free in your head and causing you to become desperate and insecure.
