The REAL Golden Rule

For all I know, Mr. Dawn’s brother is all the things he said he is and more. Perhaps, he is none of them. Saying he is a Christian doesn’t mean he acts like one. It is a generalization I typically avoid like the plague. Therefore, I apologized. @Tia_Thompson

That’s fine.

I think our definitions on Christianity are different.

You’re looking at it from a point of “I believe there is a deity who created the universe and humanity” and we Atheists see Christianity as well as Islam, Hinduism, Shinto, and all of those other religions as man made fairy tales. We don’t believe that stuff exists because there’s no evidence of any kind that says it does exist other than a bunch of hand written holy books from the middle ages making absurd claims.

So when someone declares that they are a Christian and that they believe that their is a “God”. To me, an Atheist. I identify them as a Theist. To you and being a Christian, you have a higher standard of what that is. But honestly, you and my brother are in the same boat because you both identify as Monotheists and that’s what you are.

You saying he isn’t a Christian is pretty stupid seeing as you both believe in the same bullshit fairy tales. He just follows the rules a lot less than you do. And to a lot of us on here. It makes no difference because the evidence against your God belief tells me it’s not real. So no point in saying your fellow Christians are not Christians.

You’re all the same to me.
