Christian

A person who believes in God and that his son Jesus Christ rose from the dead to save mankind. Like in all beliefs, there are some misconceptions about Christianity. 1. We don't believe in fairy tales - Like in my Atheist definition, a fairy tale is a folklore meant to entertain children. Religion is not meant to entertain. It's a belief. Like atheism. Does that make atheism a fairy tale, too? 2. We don't hate atheists and gays - Our religion clearly states that we are called to love thy one another equally. I don't care what other people believe, as long as they don't shove it down my throat. And while our church doesn't support homosexuality, that doesn't mean we hate gays. If fact, we love them nonetheless. 3. Just because we believe in God doesn't mean we think science is bull - There are plenty of scientists who believe in God. I say I'm one of those Christians who believes that there is rationality hiding behind that divine hand. I don't go around claiming that the scientists are wrong. 4. Jesus wasn't a zombie - A zombie is a rotting flesh-eating corpse risen from the dead. If Jesus was a rotting corpse that ate flesh, he would be a zombie. Whoever says so otherwise is trying too hard to make our religion sound idiotic. 5. We don't always take the Bible seriously - I'm a Catholic. Does that mean I believe that evil was created because a snake convinced a woman to eat a magic apple? No, I believe in God and Jesus. Like I said before, I also believe in science.
