Those that call themselves Christians and treat people badly, are not living the way Christ taught us to live. We are to treat each other with Love, not judge. I am a Christian, that is to say I accepted God's free gift. I am NOT a church person. I have been a member of two different churches and now semi attend a third. I find that there is nothing that will put people off more than "CHURCH PEOPLE" Organized religion is nothing more that a click. They seem to want to make other people feel bad about themselves. That is not Biblical. Not all Christians treat people badly.

why do some people single out Christians as hypocrites?

hypocrites come in all flavors...it's a nearly universal human condition...yet some only see it in Christians.

if you said to me you've never been hypocritical, I'd bet you're not being honest with yourself...

Mac, what is it exactly that your fishing for? You have four posts speaking of people passing judgement in some form and then you quote scripture about people passing judgement. Almost sounds like that's what you're doing.

Why is anybody mean?

Yes, Christians should know better. But to be honest, everyone should know better.

The country gets more hateful by the day. I suppose many Christians do as the country does. Many Christians are neither mean nor hateful. It is easy to find those that are if that's what you want to find.

I don't think they are mean enough. A guy that works where the wife does caught a guy going through his bag at the gym. He beat the crap out of him and the punk pulls a knife and kills him. He should have stomped on the guys throat when he was down and killed the -

The article I shared does not say anything about all those that attend a church are mean. You did not read it, correct?
Please stop slapping children. It is not nice. Hopefully the LOL means you are kidding. But in my life time I have seen some Christians beat the tar out of their kids.

Well 62% of Americans claim to be Christian's
The fast growing religion in America is Islam or Muslim at 3.25 growth rate a year.

Sad to see ,to hear about, .
Mac the article you posted has merit ,,, thank you for posting it.
A reminder to be a doer of the word and not hearers only. Is always good.
Thank you

We are all capable of being mean. And we all fail to what we know is right I t is not always about our religion. But is our human nature that we are born into this world with to do what we know we should not do

Iv never met a mean Christian,
But I know a lot of unsaved Christian Haters..
Jesus said we will be Hated for His name sake...
Christian’s are the most hated people in the world ,

Truth right there. We all have fallen short and we all will make mistakes going forward
