Hmmm. What happens when atheists similarly show love for their fellow human beings? Perhaps by showing up at a picnic and passing out business cards. Can you feel the love? So, where is the fault here? Does it lie with the message or with the messenger?
You are exactly correct!! You, however, have not met nor do you know me. So do you assume that I walk around with a cross on my shoulder? Wrong. I feel that a person or persons who invade picnics are not effective. It's all about the Golden Rule. By first asking ourselves what would we feel if our picnic was invaded... you get the point.
Just don't judge all Christians or Atheists for that matter by the acts of a one or two. The one bad apple in the barrel rule should apply. The major difference is that we are discussing eternal Hope. Even when discussing Hope, friendship first is necessary.

I'm not blaming all this on you personally. But when you talk about how True Christians spread the faith by showing the Christlike love of fellow humans, I get a little and understandably antsy. How far behind all this Christlike love can the Good News actually be? Here's an update: This society is saturated by Christianity and by Christians. All of us either already are Christians or are fed up to here with being pestered by them. There is no further news-spreading that needs to be done here, thank you very much. If True Christians wish to demonstrate their Christlike love of fellow humans, they should go back to their homes and churches and be quiet.
Religion is an individual matter. Mine is of no concern to you. Yours is of no concern to me. Until you barge into my life and begin to boast over it. At that point, shutting you up is no imposition on your rights at all, but rather a defense of my own. Free exericise freaks (and there have been some to post in this thread) ever fail to recognize this point. They cross the line and then get all uppity over being told to get back where they belong. That's no part of Christlike love...
So we can expect now to have some right-wing moonbat standing by to blow the whistle any time someone uses those words, regardless of context??? That's just wonderful. I hope that this will change over time...
I'm actually more of a sunbat--that's why I live in Florida.
And since when did being skeptical of Obama's mind-numbing cult merit a charge of "right wing"?

Since you started using phraseology such as Another blind Obama follower? Sigh.
Mind-numbing cult doesn't portend so well either, by the way.
Meanwhile, feel free to go away unless you can post something more germane to the actual topic...
