Think about it this way. If you know that a person does not get enough dietary fiber..then the kind thing to do would be to continue to offer them the apple, despite their initial rejection.

You continue to offer the apple to them, not because you want to coerce or control them, but instead because you do not want to see them suffer the ill effects of lack of fiber in their diet.(ie constipation, hemmoroids, IBS, etc) 😄

True Christians continue to offer the apple..because they love their fellow man..and don't want to see him/her suffer the ill effects of having an unhealthy "spirtual" diet

True Christians also know when to stop offering the "apple"..and allow their fellow man to be contented with something that will not fulfill their "spiritual" needs.

No, no... christianity is not like a apple, apples are healthy foods, its better compared with lower quality mass production fast food. pepsi

Somepeople are contented with their lower quality mass production fast food they get, for me I need caviar every day.

Christianity as fast food.cheers

That made me smile and it took at least three years of pain away, thank you. 😄

hmm I personall criticize christians because... well this quote will explaing it best "tell a devout christian that hiswife is cheating on him or that yogurt makes you invisible and he is likely to require as much evidence as anyone else and to be persuaded only to the extent that you give it. Now tell him that the book he keeps by his was written by an invisible deity who will punish him with fire for eternity if he fails to accept its every incredible claim about the univers, and he requires almost no evidence whatsoever. Plus, it makes no sense to say that god created the universe right around the time that the babylonians had discovered beer, doesn't relaly match up.

Nope.... fries are included too... but of course, they are not that bad if we eat them once in a while.

Im christian but im never critized. (most llikely because of my young age)

Aren't you a Morman...???...Do you live in a morman community only hanging out with Mormans?...Only curious.

Jesus had already told us that we would be hated in this world. Christianity was never meant to be so popular that everyone would accept it.

However, Jesus has already won the victory at the cross and when He rose from the dead.

people who believe deeply in faith are religious, that's fine.
People who try to shove their faith, beliefs, customs, and moral values on others through pressure, government, or threats are obnoxiously religious, and that's not cool. The reason I appreciate my particular faith is that Jews don't proscilitize and thus don't annoy the shit out of their neighbors like virtually every other faith.

Because there are actually intelligent men out there who are smart enough to realize what a bunch of retards Christians are. By believing in superstitious bullshit you're just wasting your time.

this is just me, but i have the feeling that whatever jesus wanted to bring to humanity, it wasn't "Christianity"... and if it was, he is directly responsible for every action that a Christian has done in the name of their faith.

...if so, Jesus has a lot of explaining to do. ✅

What if they take the apple but do not find it nourishing or to their tastes no matter how you prepare it? More significantly, what if they appear to have an allergic reaction, and begin to, say, suffocate upon consumption of the apple?

Do you continue to try and feed them apple, or do you stop and reevaluate the situation and your judgement and the authority which you assumed in the matter?

Perhaps we trust your good intentions, but why should we have faith in your ability to help us? Is it our responsibility to use our good judgement to select a physician which will be able to provide us with a healthy "spiritual diet?" Or is it your responsibility/authority to prescribe to us the "right" spiritual diet? We would need good faith in you to allow this to be the case. If we notice you are exhibiting symptons of an unhealthy spiritual diet, why should we accept your judgement? Would you approach a leper to learn about personal hygiene? In the true pursuit of a healthy spiritual diet, it would be the individual's responsibility to reject the authority which you have assumed if it appears your practice has been corrupted, is insufficient to fit our needs, or simply you are ignorant of the subject.

Christians are sometimes too sensitive. They take what other people believe as an offence. Like an atheist who says that there is no god. Why would any Christian be offended by an atheist who does not believe in god? I am a Buddhist and if you were to say something derogatory about Buddha, I will not be offended.
