Christians who believe in the 10 Commandments...(100.00%)

What does god think of gay relationships?(0.00%)

Who are sexier, Men or Women?

For the christians
no, rnealw, that is not what I'm saying. I'm asking about nastiness and hatefulness in Christians' witness. That kind will never be successful and is a waste of time. I said nothing about not witnessing. Reread the question
Why do Christians worship Jesus and not God himself?

Do religious people see athiests as being bad people?

Why is god so vain?

Was every prayer that Jesus prayed, answered?
